Welcome back to another week of our Schools Plus Interview series – Who do you think we are?
In this weekly series members of the Schools Plus team will be asked a series of questions about them and their job here at Schools Plus. We thought this would be a great way to find out more about our staff. There is a huge array of jobs and people within the company and every interview will be totally different. You will get an insight into their day to day life, their time before working here and a bit more about the team.

What is your favourite part about working for Schools Plus?
I like the flexibility in my days and I also like working at the Globe, it’s a really nice school to be part of.
Can you describe a typical working day for you?
In the morning I always check my emails as sometimes there are issues to deal with from the night before and then I will plan out my day. Normally I will then go to the gym then come home and work and later in the day visit my site.

I think it will expand a lot more to cover many more schools and become a much bigger company.
