I have recently taken early retirement as a result of recurring health issues. I leave the superb Islwyn High School with a heavy heart as I have enjoyed every minute of working with wonderful pupils, colleagues, governors and parents. Onwards & upwards IHS- you’ll soon fly! TW

An excellent start to the new year in the English department today. Fab to welcome back the old faces, and to say hello to the new. Year Seven, you were a pleasure to teach today; you’ve made a great first impression 👍👍
