On behalf of the Governing Body, I would like to announce that the new Head Teacher for Brampton Village Primary School from 1st September will be Mr Chris Hill. The candidates went through a thorough, robust and carefully considered recruitment and interview process over 2 days and Governors are delighted to offer him the role. Mr Hill is looking forward to joining the school in September but will be visiting between now and July to begin getting to know the school, staff, pupils and families.
Mr Hill has written a short introduction to himself which I have shared below:
I am really excited to be joining Brampton Village Primary School as Headteacher in September. During my short time so far at the school, for a visit and the interviews last week, I have felt a culture and community that I will be proud to be a part of. I have already met many of the children from pre-school right up to Year 6 and look forward to getting to know everyone over the upcoming weeks and months. I join Brampton at a really exciting time, where we can build upon the success of Mr Allen's leadership and take the whole team forward to give all the children the opportunity to learn skills that will see them through their lives. I bring to Brampton many years of experience in primary school leadership, including work as a local leader of education, working with many Headteachers to improve their schools over the years. As well as a school leader I am a proud Dad to three wonderful children aged 20, 16 and 4 so am currently experiencing the joys of all phases of education, with my youngest starting school in September. I can assure you that what is right for the children at Brampton will be at the heart of all decisions we make and will mean as much to me as decisions I make for my own children. I will be attending a few school events over the summer term and will be spending some time in school so may well meet many of you. However, if I don't meet you before then, I will 'see you at the gate' in September.
Kind regards,
Chris Hill
I’m sure you will join me in welcoming Mr Hill to Brampton Village Primary School.
Kind regards
