Florence grew up in a rural area of the UK and developed a love for Music of all kinds from a young age. She was lucky enough to study at the weekends at the Royal College of Music Junior Department in London and a Centre for Advanced Training in Aldeburgh, specialising in violin, viola and voice. She went on to study Music at undergraduate level and then undertook the Teach First Leadership Development Programme as a Music teacher. Florence is passionate about developing challenging and aspirational learning experiences in Music and enhancing school communities through practical music making. She has a special interest in leadership, coaching and staff development, having completed an MBA in her own time between 2020 - 2022 and serving as a school governor. In her spare time, she enjoys cooking, reading, running and watching films.
