A headteacher has marked his retirement from a Spalding secondary school with a farewell “selfie”.
Nigel Ryan, who will leave Spalding Grammar School at the end of the academic year, took the picture of himself with all of the school’s pupils lined up in the background.
Mr Ryan announced he was to leave the school last September to spend more time travelling with his wife Elaine.
Mr Ryan said: “The Grammar School has a long standing tradition of developing well rounded, considerate young adults who are ready to go on and become leaders in both the local community and further afield.
“I hope I have helped to build on that and enabled the school to flourish into the vibrant and successful 21st Century grammar school it is today.
“However, it is time to let someone new enjoy the delights of working with such a talented and supportive community.”
The new headteacher will be Steven Wilkinson (Assistant Head), of Westcliff High School for Boys, Westcliff-on-Sea, Essex.
