At the end of this academic year, we say 'Goodbye' to three KES legends: Mr Cross, Mr Culver and Mr Powell.
Mr Cross first joined the school in 1977 as a pupil, returning as a teacher in 1993. His connection to KES has spanned decades, and left an indelible mark on the School’s history. After 32 years of dedicated service to the Chemistry department, he now steps away from the lab bench, leaving behind a lasting legacy. We wish him the best of luck for his retirement.
Mr Culver joined KES in September 2007 bringing with him a wealth of business experience. A spell of Head of Economics was followed, in 2012, by Director of Sixth Form - a post he held for 10 years. He will be sadly missed by his department and the wider school.
Mr Powell spent 19 remarkable years as Head of Rugby and leaves us for Winchester, where he will work with children with vastly different needs. His infectious passion has always drawn students to the sport. Lloyd's larger-than-life presence included establishing a boys' choir, delivering masterful assemblies, and unforgettable Sports Day commentary that made every participant feel like an Olympic competitor.
