Mr. Richard Black

Headteacher

“The speed of response from Services for Schools is amazing – professional, understanding, supportive and business like. They are also value for money.”

Ms. Tiffany White

Burser

“Thank you for all the splendid work you did on the restructuring exercise and the consultation with the Trade Unions with regard to merging schools and Trust status. I and Trust members appreciate that this takes time, often over and above the allocation of time we paid for. This is certainly valuable to a school with such a very tight budget this year.”
