  About Me:

  My name is Kenny Frederick and I have been a governor at Arnhem Wharf for nearly twenty years. I joined the governing body not long after the school opened therefore, I know the school well and am very committed to doing what I can to support the school in its work.

  I was headteacher of George Green's School for seventeen years until I retired in 2013 so I know and love the Isle of Dogs very well! I now work as an Education Consultant and I have also become a student again and am about to complete my PhD by December 2017 or soon afterwards.
