Moray Dickson
Headteacher
I joined School 21 in September 2022 as Deputy Head Teacher and was honoured to step into the role of Headteacher in September 2023.
My work at School 21 to date has included strategic responsibility for developing our staff in relation to classroom practice and the quality of teaching and learning across all phases of the school. I also had strategic oversight for assessment and reporting in phases 1 and 2, and held the position of designated safeguarding lead for years 5 and 6.
Before joining School 21, I spent the previous 3 years in the Middle East where I led a British International School. Prior to that, I gained most of my teaching and leadership experience in East London, working to innovate curriculum and raise standards in a variety of roles from Assistant Head to School improvement Partner across a large Multi-Academy Trust.
In my role as Headteacher at School 21, I am committed to raise students’ aspirations and develop a culture of excellence through engaging, relevant and challenging learning experiences. I am also committed to developing School 21 as a school that truly serves our community and brings us all together. I look forward to working with the team and the community to further develop our outcomes, our communication and bring even more joy to all aspects of school life.
