Letter from our Chair of Governors
Dear Parents, Carers, and Pupils
Retirement – Miss J Simons – Brynmill Primary School – 31st August 2025
I am contacting you to let you know that Miss Simons will be retiring as Head Teacher of Brynmill Primary School at the end of this academic year.
It is with enormous gratitude that we can reflect on the past 18 years with Miss Simons as Head Teacher, during which she has worked tirelessly for the benefit of our school. We know that Miss Simons is immensely proud of our school community, and considers it a privilege to work alongside a superb Leadership Team and wonderful staff body for so many years. Most importantly, I know she has enjoyed seeing a large number of pupils develop and progress during their time with us.
The process will now begin to appoint a new Head Teacher, and we will keep you informed as and when we appoint a replacement.
For obvious reasons, it is important to note that Miss Simons shall remain in post and be fully committed to Brynmill Primary School until her retirement.
We understand that any period of change can be unsettling for both parents and children and we would like to reassure you that we are working with all staff to ensure stability and consistency for the school both in the short and long-term. As always, our key focus and priority is the welfare and education of our children
Yours sincerely
Anwaar Younis
Chair of Governors
