About Joe

Joe is a man of Kent with a masters in literature from the University of Essex, and was formerly a primary school teacher in the state sector. He has two young children in state primary school, and teaches music for half the week — so loves getting to see what the musical culture is like when visiting schools around the south east. He says, ‘I love getting a sense of a school, painting an honest picture of its unique character. Choosing the right school can be defining — I love the idea that my reviews might help better inform that choice.’ He has completed safeguarding and child protection training.
