Nadya is a Computer Science Teacher and Head of Innovation at  Reach British International School, Abu Dhabi. She brings with her a wealth of experience of delivering the secondary curriculum in London and Sussex.

She is passionate about broadening access to the study of Computer Science and generally making it a little less daunting for students (and parents) alike.  As recently appointed board member of NAACE, she has been looking at the impact that the pandemic has played on the delivery of the Computing curriculum and the role that educational technology strategies can play in helping students to move forward.  
She is also an advisory board member for the Oxford Internet Institute, whose project on digital technology and educational equity.  Her role together with the board is to understand:
  • how varied digital technologies are used inside and outside the classroom
  • how the use of such EdTech systems influences teacher-student relationships
  • the inbuilt biases and underpinning values promoted by such technologies
  • how access to EdTech and its uses varies across contexts and circumstances.
