Marden Lodge School
I spent Friday morning visiting Marden Lodge Primary School in Caterham. It was a pleasure to meet such lively polite kids; they're a credit to the school and fully deserve the new play area that's just been built there. The teachers there - led by headteacher Georgina Steinthal - are doing some great things, and it was good to get the chance to take the full tour. Hopefully we can start letting teachers teach again, freeing them up to do what they do best: giving our youngsters the confidence and knowledge they need to fulfil their potential.
