We welcome Andrew Rattue as the new Principal of St. Clare’s, following Paula Holloway’s retirement at the end of last term. It is a return to Oxford for Andy, having studied English at Brasenose College before a successful teaching career at various schools, including nine years as Headmaster at RGS Worcester. He has lived in Thailand, the US and most recently Spain where he was Headmaster of King’s College, Madrid. He shares views that very much complement St. Clare’s international ethos:
| There has never been a more important time for adopting a global perspective on the challenges faced by countries around the world. Our international student body places us in a uniquely privileged position. |
