Dr Sandra Takei

As Head of GTA Development at King’s Academy, I support postgraduate research students and early career academics to become more skilled knowledgeable and confident in their teaching roles and responsibilities at King’s. I joined King’s Academy in 2020, contributing to our core programmes to design and deliver pedagogic support to academic and professional service colleagues across King’s. I am currently the King’s Academy liaison for the Faculty of Natural Mathematical and Engineering Sciences (NMES).

I completed both my PhD in Education Research and MA in Science Education at King’s College London. My main interest and areas of expertise are education policy, inclusive education, sociology of education and student and teacher identities. Prior to beginning my postgraduate studies, I worked for over a decade in science outreach and teacher development with experience at various educational charities in the UK, USA and Japan.
