Mike Fish, Headteacher of Marleigh Primary Academy, will be stepping down from his role towards the end of December 2023.

Mike always dreamt of building a school community from scratch. Since the academy opened in September 2022, he has played a pivotal role in implementing the curriculum for pupils with a strong focus on STEM learning and ‘A Sense of Place’ a subject that has direct relevance to the local area.

Particular highlights during Mike’s time as Headteacher include the formal opening ceremony, where he welcomed children’s author, Michael Rosen, to officially open the academy. Mike also welcomed and gave a tour of the modern learning environment to local MP Daniel Zeichner. Mike was proud to  see pupils’ artwork  featured on Sky Arts.
