Teaching Team
Lyndsey Harding, Head Teacher
Lyndsey has been part of the school since it began, as a ‘founding parent’ and has been on the teaching staff for more than a decade. She is an Italian and Spanish language graduate and formerly worked for Gartner, one of the world's leading research and advisory companies, where she held a role in training and development before leaving to join the KCI staff team in 2004.
“I am passionate about education because I believe every child needs to be valued and nurtured so that they can fulfil their full potential.”
Lyndsey has a clear understanding of the founding vision of the school and a passion to see academic excellence alongside character development and the nurturing of a Christian culture.
In 2017, she was elected as a Member of the Independent Schools Association (ISA).
Jossi Williams, Teacher
Jossi has had a genuine desire for helping children ever since she was young. This passion has followed her throughout her career and recently led her to pursue a degree in Education at the University of Stellenbosch, where she graduated with a first-class honours degree.
“My vision is to see each child discover their unique gifts and strengths and experience Isaiah 54:13, ‘All your children will be taught by the Lord, and great will be their peace.’”
Prior to this, Jossi was involved in various community projects in South Africa to help less fortunate schools and pupils, as well as gaining teaching experience across three different primary schools — teaching 6, 8 and 9 year olds respectively in a full range of subjects and extra curriculum activities.
Bassey Ephraim, Early Years Lead
Bassey brings many years of experience in working with children from Early Years through to Key Stage 2. This includes having worked with children with English as an additional language and children with special educational needs.
“I am passionate about supporting each child so that they can flourish, discover their gifts and explore their purpose in life.”
She holds an MSc in Children, Young People and Family Wellbeing as well as having Early Years Professional Status. She also has a degree in Law from The University of Calabar, Nigeria.
Sue Elbrow, Teacher
Sue brings over 35 years of experience in primary school aged teaching, and holds a Certificate in Education (Cert Ed). Originally, she trained at Chester Teacher Training College and became a key stage 1 teacher.
"The focus on values and character is increasingly important in equipping children to navigate and contribute to the world they are growing up in.”
