Key Voices #107- Headteachers at the heart of their communities with Derek Peaple
“Schools are about communities of humans coming together in real-time to talk to each other and to build relationships.

This week we talk to Derek Peaple, Former Headteacher at Park House School, Head of Education at SafeToNet and Director of Operations at Aspire 2Be about his career in teaching and headship.
