From the Cedars Primary School
I appreciate being given the chance to oversee Cedars during Mrs. Truman's absence (during this academic year).
The current academic year and all the opportunities it will provide to our school have me enthused.
As the most of you are aware, I have been Cedars' deputy head for the past six years.
Prior to that, I spent more than 30 years working in schools in a variety of positions.
As a class teacher, phase leader, and assistant head, I spent 16 years there.
I now have the honour of serving as Cedars' acting head (for the current academic year).
My goal is for us to keep cooperating so that we may expand on what we have already accomplished.
I will continue to maintain an open door policy, so feel free to stop by and talk if you have any suggestions, inquiries, or worries.
Every choice I make in my role as acting head will be based on what is best for the Cedars students.
I'm looking forward to meeting all the obstacles of this academic year (as a team) and recognising your accomplishments and dedication.
Inquiries regarding your kid should be sent to the school office at 01254 261609.
