Correspondent Profiles - Sally Bowman

I'm the East Midlands Today education and family correspondent and I began my lessons in broadcasting abroad - first at a small radio station in California (attempted surfing but failed) and then heading for Hong Kong television.

I stayed there for four years reporting for HK-TVB and ATV in entertainment and current affairs (attempted to learn Cantonese but failed miserably).

Sally has worked in Hong Kong, America and Nottingham.


Back in the UK I moved to Merseyside where I reported and presented for Granada's "This Morning" (attempted running commentary while wing-walking - failed dramatically).

Then it was Border television in Cumbria (attempted to climb Helvellyn and failed before halfway up) and then to Central Television in Nottingham where I spent 8 years as a reporter/presenter (attempted to report live from a variety of locations - mixed results) before joining the BBC.

As a mum of two young children I've a vested interest in both education and family issues (and effective stain removal).

I seem to pick up the best stories at the school gates, but I should point out that I rely on viewers and listeners to contact me if they have a story they think should be reported.

Meanwhile I'd be grateful for tips on how to be the perfect parent since I continue to fail spectacularly at that :)
