Jennie Thomson is a home grown leader, having started her career at UTC Reading in 2014 straight after qualifying as Biology teacher from Canterbury Christ Church University. She has worked in various leadership roles in the school, including Director of KS4 (years 10 & 11), and Assistant Principal firstly with responsibility for behaviour and welfare, and then teaching and learning. Since September 2022, Jennie has been Deputy Head of School with responsibility for the Quality of Education. Over the last two years she has been working on an integrated apprenticeship and Master’s Degree. She has achieved her Masters of Education in School based Leadership and Management, and achieved a distinction in the Apprenticeships part in March 2023, earning her Chartered Managers Status. Jennie was appointed Head of School in October 2023, and is really looking forward to getting UTC Reading back to being recognised as a high quality school and truly transforming lives through learning.
