I often think that the ends of term are great as things come together but this one was tinged with sadness as one of our most talented headteachers is retiring after a long and distinguished career at Parklands Primary School in Seacroft. I attended a drinks reception at the school to bid Steve farewell with other colleagues and friends.

Steve Fisher leads a great school which he has shaped and developed over the last seventeen years. Steve was instrumental in leading the development of integrated services around the child and the family... MAST was alive and delivering long before Children's Services was an idea at the DfES.

Steve's passion and commitment for this community and its children and families is inspiring and he will be missed.
