We are sad to announce the passing of another colleague, Gary Jones, who attended Coteford Primary School before heading up the road to St Nicks/Haydon from 1972-79. He passed away on 27th July at St Peter’s Hospice in Bristol after a brave battle with cancer, having been diagnosed in December 2023.

He will be remembered for being a smart pupil at school, a gentle personality who possessed wit, a sense of humour and engaging personality that made him a popular member of the year group. 

We send sincere condolences to his family from the Old Boys community.
