Pride, Passion, Success Welcome Tony Head Headteacher My name is Tony Head and I have been the Headteacher of Portswood Primary School since September 2016. However, I had the pleasure of working at this school over a decade ago and was delighted that I had the opportunity to return as Headteacher.
The support and guidance that comes from working across the Mat is invaluable and I love the feeling of family across the partnership. Both the school and I personally have benefited immensely from the depth and breadth of knowledge and support that is available.
It has given me the confidence to make informed decisions that I feel are right for the school; ones that have allowed us to continue to strive for excellence for all of our children.
