I have been teaching in London schools for over 25 years and am passionate about teaching, about Science and the Arts, about leadership, coaching and my faith. Having studied Chemistry at Oxford, I completed my PGCE at Bristol, training to teach both Science and PE including dance.  Throughout my career I have taught a wide range of Science, PE and dance courses but now focus on teaching mainly A-level Chemistry which I love. 

I started my career at Queen’s Park Community School in Brent; spent 13 years at Nower Hill High School and most recently have been the Principal at Capital City Academy in Willesden. I love the challenges, variety and rewards of teaching in London schools and I am so pleased to be back serving my local community as Headteacher at Hatch End.


 

Deputy HeadteacherMs Marina Dunford

Deputy Headteacher, Pastoral and Community

Following completion of a BA in Geography at Birmingham University, I joined Hatch End High School in 1985 as a teacher of Geography.  I worked as the Careers Co-ordinator before being appointed as a Head of Year, a position I held for 10 years. I completed an MA in Educational Management and my NPQH and held the position of Head of Lower School before being appointed to Deputy Headship, Pastoral and Community 21 years ago. I have a lifelong love of the Arts and am the Head of the Hatch End High School Production Society. Outside school, I was a governor at a primary school in Hillingdon for just over 10 years as well as being instrumental in the setting up of a new primary school for 2018 in the local area called Harrow View.  My length of time at the school is testament to the very special love I have for its inclusive ethos.

Deputy Headteacher, Curriculum and Assessment

Having completed a BSc in Geography at Queen Mary’s University and remembering the impact my own teachers had on both my academic and personal development, I decided to embark on a career in teaching. I was fortunate to be placed at Hatch End High School as part of my PGCE with the Institute of Education in 2010 and over the years have held many different roles and responsibilities as part of our school community. These roles have included; Head of Geography, Head of the Humanities Faculty, Teacher Governor and Induction Tutor and Assistant Headteacher. Currently as Deputy Headteacher- Curriculum and Assessment I am privileged to work with our dedicated staff to ensure teaching and learning is underpinned by effective researched informed practice. It is my belief that through an ambitious, diverse and inclusive curriculum offer we can ensure our students are inspired, motivated and empowered with the knowledge and skills to embark successfully upon their next stage in their learning journey, be it higher education or the world of work.

After working in graphic design and social care, I began my teaching career in the most northerly part of Namibia and have since amassed over twenty years of experience in teaching Economics and Business Studies in three very different London secondary schools and the London School of Economics and Political Science.  I was appointed at Hatch End High School in March 2006.  I have been responsible for establishing the Sixth Form and watching it grow to being one of the most successful Post 16 centres in the country being regularly in the top 10% and even 2% of schools in the country for the progress students make.   I enjoy working as part of the wider Harrow Collegiate and believe that partnership and collaboration for all our young people is the only way to sustain school improvement.   My daily motivation is still fuelled by my conviction in the positive transformative power of education.

Tom murrellMr Thomas Murrell

Assistant Headteacher, Key Stage 3

After graduating from Brunel University with a BSc in Sports Science, I began a career in business sales and client relations.   After a short time in industry it became clear to me that my preference was to be involved in a profession where I could make a difference and help others. Following this decision, I went back to Brunel University to complete my Post Graduate Certificate in Education to become a teacher of Physical Education. My first teaching placement was at a nearby Harrow school and since then I have never looked back. Hatch End High is now the third Harrow high school I have worked in, and during my time in the borough I have held a variety of different responsibilities including Year Co-ordinator and Joint Head of Sports Studies. I am delighted to have joined Hatch End High School in May 2020 as Assistant Headteacher - Key Stage 3.  I am passionate about helping our students to make a positive transition into secondary school and supporting them to fully embrace the school’s ‘WE CARE’ ethos, thereby enabling them to develop into young people who are caring, ambitious and continually striving to reach their goals in life.

Assistant Headteacher, Teaching & Learning, CPD 

After studying Geography at Exeter University I had a successful 10 year career in public relations.  However, my love of geography and a desire to really make a difference led me to train at a teacher at the Institute of Education in London. At Hatch End I have held several roles; most recently as a senior leader responsible for teaching and learning. I have been privileged to work with colleagues from schools across London and Higher Education Institutions; supporting and challenging teachers as they have developed into reflective and research informed classroom practitioners.  I have a strong belief that the best teachers continue to see themselves as learners and as teaching becomes an increasingly research informed profession I have been driven by a desire to ensure that collaborative professionalism lies at the heart of how schools engage with this research. I have spent the last three years leading learning in an all through international school in Jakarta, Indonesia.  This time in such a diverse country has been a very enriching experience, both personally and professionally; I have learned a great deal and have grown in my role as a geography teacher, international educator and leader of teaching and learning.  I have been exposed to different curricula and pedagogies in a range of contexts and have developed a real understanding of how we can support students’ learning and personal growth.  I feel very privileged to be able to return to Hatch End High and I am looking forward to sharing my learning with colleagues at a school  that places so much emphasis on colleagues learning together to support students to be the best they can be.

Assistant Headteacher, Teaching & Learning, ITT

I started working at Hatch End High School in September 2022 at Assistant Headteacher for Teaching and Learning, after being Lead Practitioner for a school in East London.  I completed my PGCE in Secondary Geography Education in 2009 and have worked at three contrasting London schools in various different roles first as Geography Teacher, then Head of Geography and most recently as Lead Practitioner with a whole school teaching and learning focus. I enjoy understanding how learning happens and recognising the importance of pedagogy in making learning accessible to students.  I believe that education plays a fundamental role in improving the life chances of our students and in supporting them to become the best they can be.

Assistant Headteacher

Having graduated from the University of Oxford with a BA in History, I felt inspired by the love of learning that my school teachers had instilled in me and pursued a career in education. I completed my PGDE in Secondary Mathematics Education with the Institute of Education through Teach First and have since taught Maths, Further Maths, History and even some Politics. Across my career I have held a range of roles in both pastoral and academic areas of school life, and was delighted to join Hatch End High School in January 2024 as Assistant Headteacher focusing on timetabling and IT provision. I am constantly motivated both by the joy and enthusiasm that learning can bring and the enormous positive impact that education can have on the lifelong outcomes of all pupils.
