It is with great sadness that we report the death of Andrew Dixon. He retired from MCS in 2016, as Head of Learning Support, having previously been Head of Geography.

He joined the school in 1992, after a career in retail working for John Lewis. He will be remembered for the many field trips, both locally and around the world, but also as a teacher who took the trouble quietly to improve the lives of so many.

A fuller obituary will be published later.
