Succession

Astute followers of the Headmaster's tweets will have seen that the process of selecting the next Burr Housemaster is under way. I'm delighted by the timing (and some generous comments from my boss). The Headmaster will be able to tell you in a few weeks who will be taking over from me, when I leave Shiplake at the end of June 2012. Whoever the lucky person is will have a full year to get to know Burr and its wonderful family. The job has been advertised internally.

Meanwhile, whatever happens in Burr remains my fault !
