Clare Norton
Hi, I'm Clare, Operations Manager at School of Coding, School of Cyber Security, The Work College and SOC Learning. Over the years I’ve worked in advertising, marketing, law, software, education, and business management and growth. That’s why my role at School of Coding suits me so well. It’s the perfect mix of everything I know and love. Outside of work, I’m a mum to my thirteen-year-old son, and I’m passionate about being the best I can be and encouraging others to do the same, both inside and outside of the workplace. My favourite thing about my role is working with the team and working on the ever-changing, ever-diverse projects we undertake as coding educators. My advice to my ten-year-old self would be to listen to and trust your gut instinct. And I would love to be mentored by Alan Sugar!
