Headteacher

Sally Washington

I joined Compass Community in April 2022 as Headteacher at CCS Mountfields Park. The school has gone from strength to strength and I am immensely proud to be the Head of such a life-changing and transformative provision. I am passionate about making a difference in the lives of young people, especially those who have experienced difficulties and hardship.

Children need a different approach and adults that understand them and their individual needs. I am driven by the desire to improve outcomes and life chances for my students, as giving a child the support, skills, knowledge and opportunities to succeed in their life is, in my view, the best thing you can do for a child.

 

Part of a Wider Community
