Our Leadership Team

Proudly English, and originally a Physics teacher, Peter worked in the UK and then came to Asia over 30 years ago. His leadership experiences have balanced both the academic and guidance aspects of a child’s development, and he gained the UK professional headship qualification NPQH in 2007.

Peter led the transformation of Sri Garden to TISKL which started in 2009, and worked behind the scenes with the development of the TISPC campus before becoming Executive Principal in 2022. He is a strong supporter of the Arts and Sport in schools, and has seen the enormous benefits a child gains from involvement in these areas. His vision of education puts TIS students at the centre of their education, with the aim to give them a diverse set of opportunities and experiences to help raise them ready for a successful future.

Edward is originally from Ireland but has lived in a range of other countries since 1993. He graduated with a BSc in Geography (Climatology) from Southampton University in 1996, followed by a PGCE in Geography and History from Keele University in 1997. He has 24 years’ teaching experience, with 21 of them in International Schools, in Mexico, India and the UAE. He has been a senior leader for 20 years, the last 11 of them as a Head Teacher. He also holds a PGCert in International Educational Leadership and PGDip in International Education Research from Oxford Brookes University.

Edward is passionate about ensuring that every learner is able to benefit from a truly stimulating environment, where teachers, parents and students work together in a close partnership to find success both academically and in all opportunities beyond the classroom. He is committed to teacher training and development and loves to work with all stakeholders to drive continuous improvement in teaching and learning for the whole community. He is therefore very excited to be joining a school with such a distinguished record, as evidenced in the Quantum Learning Programme.

She is passionate about creating happy, safe and emotionally secure learning environments where children feel supported to take risks, build resilience and thrive. She is excited to work closely with students, staff and families in her role as Head of Primary, helping every child to thrive both academically and personally.
