During our conversation, I felt Jill's passion for education and her desire to make sure every child has the potential to flourish. 

We talked about her journey to becoming head at Clifton Hall and her leadership style. We also discussed the school's ethos and how it supports both academically able children and those who need support.

Jill tells us how the school promotes independence and resilience, and prepares children for further education and alternative options. 

We also touch on what parents should do if their child is already at a school but socially or academically unhappy.

Finally, we discuss how you can visit Clifton Hall School and see it in action at their upcoming open day on Friday 11th September.
