David Tansey

My own education and my career in education have provided opportunities that I never dreamed of when I was growing up in Liverpool, England. I joined Bloomsbury as Head of Secondary in 2021 and I’m very proud about being asked to take over as Principal in 2023. Previously, I was the principal of international schools in Yangon, Myanmar after holding similar roles in Kuwait and Bahrain in the middle east. Prior to that, I was the Headteacher of two secondary schools in the north of England. Outside school I enjoy running, swimming, cycling, and playing the drums, all of which I do with great enthusiasm and very little talent. My aim is always to help young people develop the knowledge, skills, understanding, and values they need to thrive in and make sense of their rapidly changing world.
