A SCHOOL in Oxford has announced the name of its new headteacher.
Karen Donaghey will take over at Jericho’s St Barnabas' CE Primary School, according to a newsletter sent to parents this week.
In December the school announced that current head Fiona Hawkins will retire at the end of the academic year.
The newsletter stated: "Governors, staff, pupils and parents all contributed to the appointment process.
"Mrs Donaghey is so excited to have been selected as the new headteacher and I know with governors, staff, families and most importantly children, will make the school a wonderful place."
