Emma Barker
HEADTEACHER, NETHERTON INFANT AND NURSERY SCHOOL
Emma proudly serves as the Headteacher at Netherton Infant & Nursery and is currently thriving in her third year within The Together Learning Trust.
With a rich 16-year history in education, Emma's journey has taken her from a class teacher to Deputy Head, amassing six years of invaluable experience before taking on the role of headship.
Before diving into the world of education, her career path led her through the role of an assistant editor in a publishing company. However, her true passion and calling motivated her to retrain, realizing her lifelong dream of becoming an educator.
Outside the professional realm, she finds joy in precious moments with her two boys, she embraces a weekly yoga practice and stays active through her love for running. Emma's creative side shines through her sewing endeavors, and her fondness for reading, especially children's books, permeates both her home and school surroundings with an array of literary treasures.
Emma’s diverse life mirrors her steadfast dedication to education and personal fulfillment within The Together Learning Trust.
