A NEW headteacher has been appointed at Cumbria's only standalone independent school - and he has 'a clear vision for the future'.
Cumbria’s only standalone independent school for children aged 3 – 11, Hunter Hall, has extended a welcome to new head Paul Borrows.
After completing his PGCE at Homerton College, Cambridge, Paul started his teaching career at an international school in Zambia. On returning to the UK, he took up a position at an independent day school in Bury St Edmunds.
During this time, he completed a Masters in Education at the University of Cambridge, and also began working with a number of other organisations, including the Royal Institution and the Independent Association of Prep Schools (IAPS) as a Maths Subject Advisor, during which time he organised a number of popular and oversubscribed courses.
At Hunter Hall, Paul said he has a clear vision of what he wants to achieve.
Paul said: “I feel enormously privileged to have been given the opportunity to lead Hunter Hall. Fundamental to the success of every child is the strength of the relationships that the children enjoy with their teachers, and the staff at Hunter Hall are all incredibly dedicated and focused on supporting and encouraging every child as an individual.
"It is wonderful to be joining such a warm and welcoming community, and I am very much looking forward to getting to know the children over the coming days and weeks.”
