Who Are We?

The Merton Special Teaching Alliance was formed by Perseid School and Cricket Green School in 2012.

In 2014 MSTA expanded its remit to include Merton School Partners, providing a unique context for our work. As a result, we have a large number of experienced leaders  available to provide support at different levels, including Senior Leaders, National Leaders of Education (NLEs), Specialist Leaders of Education (SLEs) and Expert and Consultant Teachers.

Our strategic direction is provided by the following:

Tina Harvey Headteacher   Perseid School		Celia Dawson Headteacher   Cricket Green School

Matt Ball Headteacher Bishop Gilpin Primary School		Katharine Davies      Consultant Leader

Alison Jerrard Headteacher  Ricards Lodge High School		Carla Chandler   Executive Headteacher Melbury College

We work in collaboration with Merton Local Authority and are governed by an Executive Board comprising representatives from our key partner organisations and institutions.
