Deputy Head Pastoral Mrs Penny Barton

Penny Barton

Deputy Head Pastoral

I was appointed as Director of Studies at Fairfield Prep School in 2001 and now have the privilege of coordinating pastoral care as Deputy Head Pastoral at a time when there is an increasing emphasis on the mental health and wellbeing of our children. I continue to enjoy being part of an innovative school where we embrace new ideas and technologies, whilst keeping our core values of a child centred education at the heart of what we do.

Outside of School I am an avid reader, enjoy travelling as well as being a keen cook and crafter. I am married with one daughter, Holly, who was educated at Fairfield and LHS before University. Her days at Fairfield are still frequently talked about with fondness and she has many happy memories of her time here.
