We are delighted to announce the appointment of David Morse as Head after a rigorous interview process including questioning by our older children!

David may already be known to some of you as the Founding Headmaster of our sister school, the British International School of New York. As such, he acquired knowledge of Abercorn and its workings that will stand him in good stead in September.

David has also been head of Cleveden House, the Geneva English School, Bell Bedgebury International College, and most recently Oakfields in Upmister. He thus comes to us with a wealth of experience of a variety of schools both in the UK and abroad.

He and his wife Sue are blessed with two children James (age 16) and Emma (14) who attend school at Oundle and a mischievous dog called Abi. David has a great sense of humour and enjoys cricket and golf and looks forward to meeting everyone at Abercorn.

An Ex-Abercorn Pupil Visits Downing Street

Abercorn School is very proud of Isobel Apter, a former pupil who was recently chosen, along with a fellow student, by the Head of Sixth Form at Francis Holland School to visit Downing Street.

The Francis Holland girls accompanied Mrs. Durham (Headmistress) to request donations from the Prime Minister and the Chancellor of the Exchequer on behalf of the Alexandra Rose charity.

Francis Holland School's association with the Alexandra Rose charity dates back to its inception in 1912.
