From Marlborough College Academic Review Summer 2021:
‘Taking on the position of Deputy Head (Academic) in this most challenging of years has given me a privileged view of the extent to which the College’s ongoing academic success is owed to the combined efforts of a huge range of individuals; pupils, beaks and the support staff upon whom both groups rely every day. This hasn’t been truer than in the work of the Exams Office in these extraordinary times. Seeing their superhuman degree of organisation and flexibility, matched by the care they have taken for every Marlburian during assessments across this term, has made me mindful of just how fortunate we are to have such a professional and compassionate team managing this important aspect of our academic life.’
