The new head of Castle Rushen High School says he faces some challenges in his new job – but is confident the school can put the past behind it.
Andrew Cole, formerly the deputy head at Ramsey Grammar School, takes over after Maria Tomaszewska left earlier this year.
He’ll take up his new job at the start of November and says he’s looking forward to it.
Mr Cole says it’s a great school with some problems which he hopes to get to grips with quickly.
