My name is Simon Clark and I am currently Head of School and PYP Coordinator at Discovery School in Mansfield, OH. I've worked in IB schools for almost 17 years and have taught every age range from Kinder to 8th Grade. I'm originally from the UK but have had the pleasure of working in Switzerland, Mexico, North Carolina, and California before moving to Ohio.
Since becoming part of the IB Educator Network I have led a range of workshops, both online and in-person, as well as a site visitor and consultant. I received my BA from the College of York St John in the UK, with qualified teacher status, and my MA in Educational Leadership from the University of Cincinnati.
