GILLAMOOR Primary School has a new headteacher.
Alison Tweddle joined the school at the start of the autumn term following the retirement of previous head Gareth Bennett.
Mrs Tweddle, who is originally from London, has been teaching for 24 years and previously taught British service children in Germany.
“Everyone has been really welcoming and the children and staff are great,”
she said. “My aim is to continue the many good things happening at the school and hopefully build and develop what has been achieved here.”
