Paul Davies

Assistant Head - Teaching & Learning

Paul studied Zoology as an undergraduate before completing a PhD in evolutionary biology, with a focus on the evolution of elephants in Europe. Having completed his NQT year, Paul worked for eight years in Bancroft’s School in Woodford as both Head of Junior Science and Head of Biology. At the same time, he completed an MA in Science Education which eventually led to him leaving teaching in schools to work at UCL Institute of Education. Here Paul led the Science PGCE and MA in Science Education before eventually becoming the Director of Initial Teacher Education. Alongside this Paul carried out research in biology education, with a particular focus on learning science in informal environments and the use of technology in learning science. After six years, Paul decided to return to the classroom when he moved to Queen’s as Head of Science, and soon took on the role of Director of Teaching and Learning before becoming Assistant Head Teaching and Learning in 2021. He remains an associate of UCL and continues to carry out research and write. Away from education Paul enjoys natural history and is also a fan of rock music, spending much of his spare time attending concerts.
