Head's Welcome

Simon’s career has seen him teach in several prestigious schools including Brentwood, Stowe and seven years as Deputy Head at Worksop College. Simon was appointed Principal of Gordonstoun in 2011 and in 2017 Head Teacher of Christ’s Hospital.

Simon has a BA in English and Politics and a Higher Diploma in Education from the University of Witwatersrand, South Africa. His wife Michèle teaches French (her native language) and they have two adult children. Simon’s interests include architectural and landscape photography, writing poetry, reading and skiing.

If you want a school with the ‘wow’ factor in abundance, look no further than Christ’s Hospital.

Christ’s Hospital offers its pupils something very rare in UK independent education. The School is one of only four co-educational full boarding senior schools in the country. The advantage of full boarding is that all pupils stay at school twenty-four hours a day, seven days a week. On Saturday mornings there are lessons followed by a weekend programme of sport, co-curricular activity and entertainment.

We are unashamedly academic – with 98% of pupils moving on to the leading universities in this country and abroad. However, we know that many key lessons are learnt beyond the classroom and Christ’s Hospital’s broader curriculum opportunities are extensive.

The pupils at Christ’s Hospital receive much of the very best an independent education can provide and the journey they make from the time they arrive to when they leave is often profoundly rewarding, and along the way we support their growing resilience and success as they move on to university and beyond.
