New Headteacher for Scoill Phurt le Moirrey

Simon Murphy has been appointed as the new Headteacher for Scoill Phurt Le Moirrey, from September.

Mr Murphy, who is from the Isle of Man, is an experienced school leader having worked in both the UK and further afield.

He will return to the Island to take over from the school's current head, Ange Callaghan, when she retires this summer.

Mr Murphy said he's 'incredibly excited to be returning for this fantastic opportunity' and 'really looking forward' to sharing experiences with everyone at the School.

Mrs Callaghan has been in charge of the school, which currently has 168 pupils, since 2016.
