Having worked for an enjoyable decade in marketing and advertising, Mark eventually took the plunge into education, completing the one year, graduate teacher programme. His first role was as an ICT teacher (which morphed into a Class Teacher role) at the Grosvenor Preparatory School, Nottingham. After a short stint at Plumtree School, he became a Class Teacher at The Elms (where he still resides), the junior school to Trent College; where his duties include leading Computing and as a Class Teacher in Year 6. Next year, he will celebrate 20 years in education.
