Mr Maturine has been volunteering and working with young people for over ten years. He has worked in many different challenging environments and has gained many experiences from working with young adults. My main objective is to prepare students for the next steps and life outside of Copthall School. I believe in young people and believe with the right guidance and platform they can achieve the most wonderful things.

I studied Psychology at Goldsmiths University and whilst I was a teaching assistant I went on to complete my Masters in Educational and developmental Psychology at UCL/IOE University where I specialised in the effects of social, emotional and mental health on educational attainment. Shortly after I completed my teachers training in Social Sciences with East London Teaching Alliance and in 2017 I joined Copthall, shortly after I became the Curriculum lead for Psychology.
