Jade Kelly

Hello, I’m Jade, and I teach PSHE and Psychology. This academic year, I have been appointed as an Assistant Head Teacher focusing on Innovation in the curriculum. Originally from Wigan in the Northwest of England, I attended a local Catholic school. After graduating with a First-Class degree from Liverpool Hope University, I completed my PGCE through a School Direct Course. I joined GFS in 2021 and was appointed as the Head of Innovation the following year. In my role, I aim to prepare children for a changing world by guiding students and teachers to embrace change, take risks, and foster creativity in the classroom. By creating a culture of innovation, I believe our students will be inspired to think differently and share ideas to find impactful solutions to the challenges of today and the future. I thoroughly enjoy planning and participating in Enrichment Days at GFS. These days provide our students with fantastic opportunities to develop important life skills such as teamwork and leadership. Another highlight of my role has been supporting the Adam Burfield Enterprise Award. This competition offers a unique opportunity for students to collaborate with real companies, providing them with a platform to showcase their entrepreneurial skills and creativity. I am excited about my role and looking forward to bringing in more innovative initiatives.
