Richmond School community hosts final farewell to Dave Clark

The sound of bagpipes welcomed popular deputy headteacher Dave Clark into Richmond School car park for a final time. 

The full school, standing in year group bubbles, as well as staff and sports teams, lined the edge of the car park to allow the funeral cortege to drive through, before making its way to St Mary’s Church in the town.

Many staff members wore tartan scarves in honour of the Scottish-born deputy headteacher, who had been described as the “life and soul of the school.”
