Year 7 Team
Mrs K Patel - Year 7 Tutor & Head of Maths
I am the subject lead for KS3 Maths and I am also a Year 7 tutor. I teach maths in KS3 and a KS2 class. Prior to teaching maths, I worked in the investment banking industry. When I am not in school I love to cook especially if I have discovered a new ingredient or dish; I help out at the allotment and enjoy reading. I look forward to meeting you as you continue your mathematical journey where everybody counts.
Mr K Bingham- Year 7 Form Tutor/ Head of Science
I have been at Dedworth Middle School for 5years and am currently the head of Science, a role which I am immensely passionate about. Outside of school I have lots of hobbies and interests that include; football (Toon army!), Formula 1 (go Mclaren), running (not my favourite), gaming (might be my favourite), painting Warhammer models, mountain biking, golf, World War 2 history and reading (as a teacher you’d think I have to say this but it is true I promise).
I love coffee and biscuits, pastries, doughnuts etc and if you have done something exceptionally well I could be persuaded to share a hot chocolate and a biscuit with you as a reward (any dietary requirements must be supplied in advance). I am very proud to be a part of Dedworth Middle School it really is a fantastic place to work.

Hi, I’m Mrs Blake I am a KS3 Teaching Assistant. I love to help children with their work In various subjects. I am always available to talk to whether it’s just something fun you did at the weekend or if it’s something you are nervous or worried about. I am also a military wife (originally from Manchester) and understand the complicated lifestyle that comes with having a military family member. I have a daughter and a son, I also have a very cheeky Chihuahua. In my own time I love to spend time with my children and husband and visit my family in Manchester a few times a year. I look forward to seeing and meeting you all soon :)

“Hello there, I’m Mr Thomas. I joined Dedworth Middle in September 2021 and I teach Music to Years 7 and 8. I also teach Music at The Windsor Boys School during the week.
