Local Headmaster leaves grammar school

Mr Robert Cooper, headmaster of the Royal Latin Grammar school in Buckingham has announced his resignation this week.

Mr Cooper took up the post of head teacher to the local grammar school after the previous headmistress Cecilia Galloway left in 2006. He has since implemented a wide range of new initiatives for the school, which have contributed to the school receiving an ‘outstanding’ reputation after the recent Ofsted inspection earlier this year.

His reputation with the pupils at the school will be far from forgotten; however, as the final alterations to the school timetable will come into effect in September. These include changing the lesson and break lengths alongside altering the end to the school day, which have caused much controversy amongst staff and students alike.

The head teacher will be taking up another position at another school in January of next year, leaving the Royal Latin School management team time to find a suitable replacement.
