Nicola Kelly
Virtual School Lead Practitioner (Key Stage 4, Key Stage 5 and PLAC)
I am the Virtual School Lead Practitioner for; Key Stage 4, 5 and Careleavers. I have been part of the Virtual School since 2020 and love the variety within my role of working directly with many young people as their Virtual School Officer, as well as improving the support for our 14+ cohort.
As an education practitioner, I have worked with young people in various roles both in and out of school to improve educational outcomes. I feel very passionately about the importance of championing change and promoting better educational outcomes for Looked After Children and young people and Care Leavers.
My love for learning continues in my current role where I have become a Mental Health First Aider, a TouchBase Attachment Lead, and completed several Level 1's including PACE, DDP, Therapy, and BUSS Model.
Finally, I enjoy getting involved in our enrichment offer to young people including visits to Jamie's Farm, Brunel, and lead on our trips to The University of Oxford!
