Daniel Berry, headmaster of Kirkham Grammar School, talks about the great heritage, the academic success and the spirit of staff and pupils
The longer I spend at Kirkham Grammar School, the more I understand what clearly makes it such a unique school. We are about so much more than just our academic achievements, as we continue to thrive in a challenging market.
The life of a school over a full academic year is a busy one. As headmaster of Kirkham Grammar School, the experience has been both demanding and filled with wonderful opportunities. I would like to try and share the work of the school and its pupils during an academic year, which included the delightful experience of an ISI Inspection in February. On a personal level, this was my third inspection in three years, OFSTED, SIAMS and now ISI.
