From the Principal,13th January 2023

Happy New Year to you and your family! May 2023 bring health, happiness, and prosperity to all.

FACULTY UPDATES

I would like to inform you that Ms. Lauren Davis has withdrawn from her post as Teacher of Mathematics at BWIC. Ms. Davis returned to the UK before Christmas to seek medical advice following a difficult start to her pregnancy; she has decided that it is in her best interests to remain in the UK where her medical needs and prenatal care will be optimally met. We thank Miss Davis for her efforts to advance the teaching of Mathematics during the short time she was with us.

BWIC is actively recruiting a replacement teacher. In the meantime, examination classes have been absorbed by Ms. Jones and Ms. Delancy. All other Mathematics classes are being set work by the Head of Department, according to their established schemes of work, and supervised by available BWIC teachers. Mr. Haynes, the KS3 coordinator, has taken over Year 7LD as their Form Tutor.

I would also like to inform you that I have resigned from my position as Principal of the British West Indies Collegiate, effective September 1, 2023.

It has been a privilege to be associated with the growth and educational goals of the Collegiate for the past twenty-eight years. I have greatly enjoyed working with wonderful colleagues who have tirelessly contributed to the academic and personal success of our students. I wish to thank you for your trust and support in allowing me to be part of your children’s educational development. I am certain that the TCI Education Foundation will be able to find a suitable replacement.

With best wishes,

Sylvie Wigglesworth
