Michalis Persianis «As an old boy, I would like the BoD to do a great deal of explaining as this review, long awaited, only confirms our concerns. There seems to be little concern among the key guardians of the school's tradition of excellence about the downhill path the ES has been following in the last few years. The ES will soon be the

claim that the "Excellent among the excellent" were appointed to the Board of Governors, turns out to be a
bad, sad joke, as it is now officially certified by Brittish Independent Inspectors ... and the "pledge"
of President Anastasiades proves void rendering him non trustworthy L [parents and teachers and the Turkish Cypriot leader,
are still awaiting for the President to honor his promise made last July, of
replacing the English School Board of Governors..]

of the Independent Schools Inspectorate on The English School
Grade: SATISFACTORY for Governance, Leadership and Management[2]
Grade: SATISFACTORY for Governance, Leadership and Management[2]
«Τhe quality of governance, leadership and management is satisfactory.
Frequent changes in the leadership of the school have resulted in the board of
Management involving itself in detail and consequently negating its ability to
oversee the quality of education and implementation of policies, including
safeguarding, The lack of a formal complaints procedure for parents has led to
confusion of role and resulted in a small minority of parents in the
questionnaire reporting that the school had not handled complaints well. A
minority of parents did not agree that the school was well governed. The
academic leadership has relied on the excellent learning attitudes of pupils to
achieve their excellent academic results, rather than seeking to improve the
overall good quality of teaching through a school wide appraisal scheme. The
pastoral leaders have not taken sufficiently-firm action in confronting some
key issues.”

Observations on Governance at The English School”
by Grahan Gamble, (ex) English School Headmaster, April 2014
extract:
“..what is wanted for this purpose is a summation of how governance is amiss at The English School and the main consequences of that. The present situation has probably been brought about by the appointment to the Board of persons who are unwilling or unable to understand their roles as governors of the school, NOT managers of it. The Board of The English School, Nicosia, urgently needs members who are impartial and who have the personality, the wisdom and the qualities of character to build fruitful, trusting, mutually respectful relationships with the Head of School and his or her management team.”

The independent evaluation of the English School in fact tallies with the concerns
about Governance expressed by the last Headteacher, Mr. Graham Gamble. According to information, at a
meeting at the President Anastasiades’s office he warned that if the Board is
not replaced, the historic school which used to be a jewel of the whole region,
will soon turn into a piece of coal, in the hands of the Government which
appointed it. What was replaced in the end, was not the non-credible Board but
the headmaster himself…!
