An introductory message from our newly appointed Assistant Head, Mr. Anderson:

“I’m really proud to be joining Marden at such an exciting time. I began my career at Walbottle Campus, in the Outer West, where I took on the post of Pastoral Leader before then leading Inclusion until I left in 2013.

I joined Churchill Community College as Leader of Additional Education Needs, before becoming an Associate Assistant Headteacher.

When the opportunity to join Marden as Assistant Head arose, I knew it was an opportunity to help make Marden a world class school, with an etiquette for success that we and the community can all be proud of. As a father of two, I feel kindness, hard work, grit, determination and resilience are all attributes we as adults should hope to instil into the next generation.

As Assistant Headteacher, with a responsibility for Personal Development and Wellbeing, I aim to do this, in collaboration with all parents, carers, and other members of the community, to ensure our students can work with us to ensure Marden High School is an outstanding school and a beacon of good practice in North Tyneside.”
