Mr Simon Stacey, much-loved Teacher of English, Head of Oxford and Cambridge Admissions and Debating Coach passed away on Thursday 19 May 2022 following a short illness. 

An inspiring teacher, he was an important influence on the lives of many of our pupils during his 26-year career at King Edward’s.

Simon’s knowledge of our School’s history and his passion to bring our archive alive will be greatly missed. 

All of the school community extends its deepest sympathy to Simon’s family.
