To showcase the excellent work of free school leaders across the country, NSN has conducted a series of interviews with leaders of recently opened free schools to hear how they’ve implemented their vision and confronted the challenges of opening a new school.
We recently spoke to Andrew Taylor, Headteacher of St. Gabriel’s CofE Academy, who kindly shared with us his experience of opening a primary school in Warwickshire in 2018.
Could you tell us about the original idea behind your school?
