Daley was born and brought up in rural Jamaica.[3] At the age of 12, she emigrated to England.[4] She attended school in Hackney, London,[3] and as a teenager lived in the Pembury Estate.[4]
In 2017, Daley was one 24 notable individuals chosen by the University of Oxford to have their portrait painted.[10][11] Daley's portrait was painted by Binny Matthews. It was first exhibited at a temporary exhibition and then permanently at the Exam Schools of Oxford University. The portrait commission was part of a project to augment the existing portraiture at Oxford with a greater, "diversity of background, gender and accomplishments of scholars, staff and alumni."[12]
In 2020, Daley was announced as one of the United Kingdom's 100 most influential people of African or African Caribbean heritage, in recognition of her contribution to education by being included in the 2021 edition of the annual Powerlist.[13]
