Letter from the Head

I am extremely pleased with these results and congratulate all of you on your tremendous achievements. Your collective successes are indeed excellent, and a clear validation of your commitment to work with purpose and much diligence over many years.

Similarly, I appreciate the quality of instruction and guidance that your teachers have provided, and extend a note of sincere thanks to them for their individual interest and care that they have offered. The final results of your school career over 12+ years, will be celebrated by a great number of teachers who helped lay significant foundations from the earliest stages, alongside the love, interest and support provided by your families.

Based on your individual accomplishments, I trust that the dreams and plans that each one of you has, will enable you to continue to journey through life in a similar vein, with curiosity, courage and conviction. Each of you takes so much more than a set of marks with you on your onward journey. The values, memories and relationships of your time at Roedean are the true treasures.

I trust that your pathways will see you visiting a number of the Roedean functions in the years ahead, where old acquaintances and friendships will be rekindled, and your news will be eagerly received.

With my best wishes,

MR M K THOMAS
Executive Head
