Prior to this Mrs Pugh was Director of Drama and latterly Assistant Head Pastoral at Putney High School in London. Mrs Pugh gained a first class degree in Classics from King’s College London and went on to study Acting and Musical Theatre at Central School of Speech and Drama, where, after a spell as a Theatrical Agent, she later did her PGCE.
