Miss Allanson gained her BA (Hons.) in Education with Qualified Teacher Status from Durham University in July 1998.
Miss Allanson joined the British International School of New York in September 2007 with over nine years of teaching experience of Year One/Kindergarden.  She had previously worked since September 1998 at a co-educational school catering for the gifted and talented in Battersea, London.  During her time at the school, she took on roles of responsibility namely Lower School Maths co-ordinator, Key Stage One co-ordinator and Deputy Head of Lower School. 

She was also the Lower School teacher representative on the P.T.A. committee.  Miss Allanson and her minature dachshund Dulcie are delighted to be filling a life long ambition of living and working in New York.  Miss Allanson, having had a wealth of experience with the National Curriculum is very pleased to be working in the realms of the IB programme but in a school where the N.C. is still highly influential in what is planned and taught.  At weekends, weather permitting, she can usually be found walking her dog in one of the many great parks New York has to offer.
