appointed Head Teacher of Saltus Senior School.

Headmaster Nigel Kermode announced Paul Langman's appointment this week after an interview process involving internal and external candidates at the school.

"Mr. Langman has come to Saltus from Rugby School, described last year by the Financial Times as the `best coeducational independent school in Britain' and familiar to a number of our old boys who were fortunate to have continued schooling there after leaving Saltus.'' It was Mr. Langman's computer education experience which tipped the scales in his favour, Mr. Kermode said.

"He was Director of Studies at Rugby for five years and helped to modernise the school's Information Communications Technology (ICT) curriculum,'' he said.

"Rugby's programme coincidentally mirrors our own Learning with Laptops effort at Saltus and this experience made Mr. Langman ideal for us; indeed he is an outstanding choice for Saltus Senior School leadership.''
