Mrs Susanne Haines

Director of English

I began my teaching career 10 years ago working in Milton Keynes schools.  I progressed to Head of Department, here at Kents Hill Park School, in my 4^th year of teaching and assumed my current role as Director of English last academic year.

Prior to teaching English, I studied a degree in the Performing Arts and I feel it has helped me in creating an engaging environment for learning, in the classroom. I chose to teach English to help spread and promote a passion and enjoyment of the subject; discovering new texts and immersing ourselves in the meaning of the words we read.

Kents Hill Park has provided me with a fantastic opportunity. It has given me a chance to be part of something new and exciting and I have been able to be involved in the creation of something extremely special that we now share with our pupils every day.

When I am not at school, I enjoy exercising and have found a real enjoyment in taking long weekend walks and exploring the countryside near me, with my husband and son.
