Throughout his five years at the school, there have been many successes including the introduction of 30 minutes of active exercise for every pupil, achieving Gold School Games Mark (2023) for outstanding sport and physical education provision, and leading the Key Stage 2 Boys’ Football Team to the English Schools FA Finals (2022).
