Director's Message

Dear Colleagues,

This week we farewell two valued members of our School admin team; Mark Harris and Tania Maxwell. It has been a great pleasure working with them and I know you’ll join me in wishing them all the best for the future.

I’ve been thinking for a while that I’d like to conduct a social experiment within the School.  This is partly, to help me manage my work day but also as an opportunity to test ideas about how to help everyone improve time for productive work.  If you’d like to join me in a month long trial, or are interested in what I propose please read more.

Enjoy a lovely weekend,

Tim
