Fiona Jarman is the Safeguarding and Mental Health Lead for GFL Schools - a trust which serves over 19,000 children and young people aged two to 19 in a diverse array of settings. She has worked in education for over 30 years in multiple roles within schools in London and Surrey, joining the school support team for GFL in 2013, originally as an SLE for behaviour. She now leads professional development and supervision for DSLs, SMHLs and thrive practitioners in GLF and has had the great privilege of seeing the direct impact these colleagues have had, making a difference to so many children and young people particularly those who have lived through adverse childhood experiences. As a former young carer herself, Fiona is keen to ensure that the voices of disadvantaged, quiet or neurodivergent children and young people are heard so they are empowered to make real change.
