Mr N. Carolan

I am an Assistant Principal with responsibility for Attendance. I have been involved with the inclusion team at Oulton Academy for several years as Pastoral Leader of KS4 and more recently Pastoral Leader of Attendance.

Being student focussed is essential to me; I take an active role in students’ school life and aim to encourage enthusiasm in learning. I believe that all students can lead and inspire others and I try to instil this belief in them.

Having respectful and positive working relationships with students, parents and colleagues alike fills me with pride and I feel that these partnerships are paramount in supporting the development and success of students. I am certain that professionally my sole purpose is to educate, motivate and change young people’s lives for the better.

Originally from Australia, I moved to the UK in 2014 having qualified as a PE teacher. I joined Oulton Academy later that year and now primarily teach Maths. Away from the academy, I enjoy spending time with my family, as well as playing sport such as rugby union in my spare time.
