We are delighted to welcome Dr Matthew Bach onto the Board of Governors at Danes Hill School.
Dr Bach and his family recently relocated to England from Australia, and he currently holds the post of Assistant Headmaster and Head of Lower School at Brighton College. Matthew was a member of Victoria’s Parliament in Australia, undertaking senior roles including Shadow Attorney General, Shadow Minister for Education and Deputy Leader in the Upper House. He started his career as a teacher of History and Politics, leading to varying senior educational roles: Deputy Principal, Head of Senior School, Board member, and originally a teacher of History and Politics at Carey Baptist Grammar School.
“We are thrilled to have someone of such high calibre and who brings a wealth of diverse thinking to our School Governing body,” says Cedric Ntumba, Chair of Board of Governors at Danes Hill School.
“I am delighted to join the Governing body at such an exciting time for Danes Hill School. With my experience both as a teacher and within Government, I hope I will bring a unique perspective to the Board. I know Danes Hill is a future-facing school where children can be stretched, nurtured and supported to become the best version of themselves,” says Dr Matthew Bach.
