Benjamin Jackson is a proud dad and husband, a passionate educator, and a headteacher known as the “singing headteacher”. Benjamin holds NPQH and NPQSL qualifications and loves inspiring young minds. Benjamin spent fourteen years teaching in EYFS and KS1, working closely with children and families to ensure school feels welcoming, accessible and supportive for all. Becoming a parent transformed his perspective, strengthening his belief in restorative practices, nurturing independence, and supporting the child in front of you. This journey reinforced his commitment to celebrating individuality and rejecting a one size fits all approach. Benjamin strives to create classrooms and a whole school where inclusion is lived daily, needs are understood, and every child feels a true sense of belonging. His two daughters keep him grounded and imaginative. Both of them have been on a personal journey that has strengthened his passion for inclusion and celebrating what makes each individual unique.
Fun fact: Benjamin once wrote a song about the school’s Dojo Shop featuring Steve’s Lava Chicken from Minecraft, and yes, the students still sing it! Connect with him on
