Derby Grammar School Appoints a New Head

Derby Grammar School Appoints a New Head

by | Mar 25, 2021 | General | 0 comments

Paul Logan began his teaching career in 1995 after leaving Price Waterhouse Coopers, where he trained as an accountant after graduating from Durham University.

After 13 years in the state sector he moved to independent education in 2007, as Head of Maths at Uppingham School. Recently he has been at Wisbech Grammar, an HMC day and boarding school in Cambridgeshire, first as Deputy Head Operations and then Deputy Head Academic for the last 3 years.

Mr Logan’s depth of experience, commitment to academic excellence and dynamism is underpinned by a passion and determination to continue to take the School forward.

Another highlight for Mr Logan in moving to the area is being able to further his passion for cycling, having recently qualifying for the Amateur World Road Race.

 "No work is more suited to perpetuate the fame and traditions of an ancient school and to foster the spirit of brotherhood among the succeeding generations of its alumni"

The opening words of a book that chronicles the names of the masters and scholars of the school from the early days.  Well worth a read particularly during a lockdown. Who knows you may find a relative!

To all members of the society, I must convey my apologies for the lack of newsletters over the last 12 months. As a Health & Safety Consultant, I have been extremely busy of late during the pandemic and unfortunately, other work has taken a back step.

As we start to come out of lockdown I hope to be putting more time into the website and newsletters so that we can bring you the latest news from our society.
