Hello

I'm Yamina Bibi, an author, experienced senior leader, English teacher, Coach and Consultant based in London. With extensive experience in leading Teaching and Learning, Curriculum development, and the Mentoring and Coaching of teachers at various stages of their careers, I am passionate about fostering educational growth and excellence.

My Experience

I hold a National Professional Qualification for Senior Leadership (NPQSL) and a Masters in Teaching from University College London, Institute of Education. Additionally, I am honoured to be a Fellow of the Chartered College of Teaching, reflecting my commitment to the highest standards in education.

As a DiverseEd Associate and network leader for WomenEd, a global charity organisation dedicated to supporting female teachers and leaders in education, I work to empower and uplift all, including people with protected characteristics, in the educational sector. My contributions to the field are further highlighted by my role as co-host of Series 1 of The #DiverseEd podcast and as a contributing writer for the books "Diverse Educators: A Manifesto" and Sarah Mullin's "What They Don't Teach You on Your PGCE."

I regularly share my insights on coaching and mentoring, school leadership, and effective research-informed practices through my speaking engagements as education conferences and my blogs, where I aim to inspire and support educators in their professional journeys.

My contributions to the sector have been recognised as I have been awarded a Jack Petchey Award for Inspirational Leadership at Sarah Bonnell School and won the We Are the City's 'Rising Star Award in Education' in 2021. Also 2021, the English Department I led at Forest Gate Community School won the prestigious Times Education Supplement (TES) English Team of the Year.
