Rachel Rowbottom
Rachel Rowbottom is our Head of Chemistry, Lead Teacher for Personal Development and Designated Safeguarding Lead.
Rachel was always destined to pursue a future in science, her inquisitive mind leading her to constantly seek the answers to why things happen.
After obtaining A-levels in Chemistry, Maths and Biology, she went on to achieve a first-class degree in BSc Chemistry at the University of Liverpool. She always knew she wanted to teach and inspire others to pursue a future in such a fascinating field, so her next step was to complete a Post-Graduate Diploma of Education in teaching secondary Chemistry at Edge Hill University.
For 7 years she was Course Leader of Chemistry in a college in Southport, before she joined the team here at LUSoM.
“I’m incredibly passionate about chemistry and truly feel lucky to have the opportunity to share that passion with my students. I’m grateful to be able to inspire the next generation of scientists and mathematicians and that I can play a role in helping them achieve their dreams.”
“As DSL, I am happy to speak to any member of our amazing community about any worry or concern that they might have – please just get in touch!“
