About Adam

A former police officer turned teacher. Originally from Manchester, I was the fifth person in my school’s history to achieve a place at the University of Cambridge. I read Anglo-Saxon, Norse, and Celtic, an interdisciplinary course which examined the history, languages and literature of Medieval and Renaissance Europe. I specialised in Old English and Old Norse, and honed my skills in language, literature, history, and philosophy.

Working in the Metropolitan Police Service I was chosen as second in command of a special investigation unit. It was High pressure role where I commanded efforts to find wanted suspects across the country. I organised and balanced high-pressure projects under the scrutiny of the borough senior leadership, undertaking intense research, managing resources and specialised units, and commanding operations to apprehend suspects.

I left the police in order to try to tackle social and educational inequality. I spent some time as an events coordinator at the British Museum, working closely with curators and corporate sponsors to arrange opening events around the museum’s high-profile exhibitions, before training to be a teacher.
