Mark Geldard with Roe Lee pupils
THE new headteacher at Blackburn's Roe Lee Primary School is settling in – but he has not moved very far.
Mark Geldard, 40, of Langho, has begun his first term at the helm, but had already worked with the school as part of networking groups in his four-and-half years as deputy headteacher of nearby Lammack Primary School.
Father-of-two Mr Geldard said: “It’s great to come here when I already know people at the school, and respect its good reputation.”
