About Professor Damien Page

Professor Damien Page is Dean of The Carnegie School of Education.

Professor Page has worked in education since 2000. He began his career as an English Lecturer at Lewisham College where he was also a manager in a number of subject areas including humanities, finance and construction. While in FE, Professor Page focused on the development of e-learning, working as a consultant for the Learning and Skills Network, creating the Academy of e-Business and winning the JISC e-Learning Practitioner Award in 2005. After six year in FE, he was appointed as Curriculum and Learning Manager for Linking London Lifelong Learning at Birkbeck, University of London, one of the largest lifelong learning networks in the country, forging links between further education colleges and universities.

Prior to joining Leeds Beckett, Damien worked at the University of Greenwich, firstly as a Senior Lecturer on the post-compulsory PGCE, the MA in Education and the Doctorate in Education. He was then appointed as Head of Department of Education and Community Studies, an interdisciplinary department that housed research and courses in a range of areas including education studies, childhood and youth studies and early years, from undergraduate to doctoral level. He was concurrently Director of Employability and led the development of social enterprise.

As Dean, Professor Page is responsible for the leadership of the School’s diverse portfolio of education, interdisciplinary and leadership courses, from undergraduate to doctoral, from attending to online modes, as well as our research and enterprise activity. He is a member of a range of strategic groups in the University including the Senior Management Group, Research and Enterprise Committee, Equality and Diversity Committee, the Joint Consultative Committee and the Access and Participation Strategic Group.
