Alison Colwell
Alison Colwell, originally styled ‘The Secret Head Teacher’ until the Sunday Times blew her cover in an interview in 2020, has spent several decades in teaching. She has held numerous senior leadership positions across a number of schools, most notably at Ebbsfleet Academy in Swanscombe. Under her leadership, Ebbsfleet Academy succeeded in turning around its reputation as one of the country’s worst-performing schools, resulting in an Ofsted report judging the school ‘good’. Alison now lives and works in Mallorca.
