Mel is our Apprenticeship & Higher Skills Quality Lead and joined Moulton College in March 2008. She previously worked as a lecturer and later as a Higher Education Subject Lead, specialising in ecology, conservation, land management and sustainable practices. Her more recent work has focused on supporting students through work-based learning, industry-linked projects, research development and outdoor education.

Mel is interested in conservation, nature, agro-ecology and outdoor learning.
Since starting my new role, I’ve expanded my influence from a single subject area to working across multiple faculties. I enjoy leading on quality for Higher Skills and Apprenticeships and supporting cross-college collaboration that enhances learner outcomes and ensures strong compliance.
