I’d like to introduce to myself ..... my name is Robert M Buckley, but I like to be called Bob.

I am 44 years old and have been Headteacher at St. Paul’s Primary in Chippenham for the last 11 years. Before that I was Deputy and Acting Headteacher at Robert le Kyng Primary in Swindon.

I am married with 2 boys aged 11 & 15 and am fanatical about sport, music and life long learning for all.

I consider myself very fortunate to be able to continue my career at Abbey Meads, specifically applying for this post because the school’s ethos and approaches match those to which I subscribe.
