Bio
Sara Lynn Burrough
Harparsh was my DP coordinator in the five years I worked as Head of Dpartment for the Arts (Music, Visual Art and Drama) at Chatsworth. I found Harparsh to be meticulous in her planning of all things to do with the IBDP and extremely knowledgable about the myriad of details regarding courses and assessment for DP. I was teaching DP Theatre and when we moved to the new curriculum in 2016 it was great to have Harparsh working with me to help iron out some of the kinks in the first round of new assessment. When it comes to management style Harparsh is very methodical and solution oriented. I was partiularly glad to work with this warm, kind and student-centred leader.
