Parental Communcation: 14th June 2022

Dear Parents and Carers,
 
You may be aware that Peter Diamond (Head of Education) is currently absent from work due to sickness. In his absence, an Interim Head of Education post has been established for 6 months.
 
I have been successfully appointed to this post. Whilst I am delighted to have been given this opportunity to support children and young people across Orkney, I remain committed to ensuring pupils, families and staff at Kirkwall Grammar School continue to receive the support they need, and deserve, to ‘achieve the remarkable’.
 
The school is now seeking notes of interest for an Interim Head Teacher for Kirkwall Grammar School for 6 months, and we have interviews scheduled for Wednesday 22nd June.
 
I will obviously keep you fully updated with our progress.
 
Thank you for your continued support,
 
Miss Claire Meakin
Head Teacher
