Bio
Kelly M Wailes
Craig is a passionate and driven school leader. He is solution focused and strives to ensure students, at all levels, make progress. Craig is diligent in his work ethic and aligns himself with the values and ethos of the environments he works in.

I had the privilege of working with Craig as a colleague during my time in China. As an educator (and I imagine even more so now as a Head), he consistently demonstrated outstanding organisational skills, a calm and logical approach to work and an unwavering commitment to putting the needs of students first. He has a calming demeanour, that even in the most stressful of situations, helped to foster a positive and productive work environment. For students, he seems to have a deep understanding of the unique needs and challenges faced by students and was always proactive in finding innovative solutions to help them succeed.
