When you were Headteacher, I knew all children would be cared for and supported. A truly inclusive and passionate culture pervaded schools because of your leadership. Your family meant the world to you and your absence is palpable. You lived a wonderful life and have made a huge difference. God bless you Keith and deepest sympathy to Alison, Johnathan, Oliver and your family xxxx

Thank you so much for all you have done for our education system. When I first became a Headteacher, you were the first school leader to reach out and offer me your time as well as great wisdom. Keith had an deep
commitment to supporting the most vulnerable youngsters and was ethical to the core. You will be hugely missed. All of your family are in our thoughts and prayers. Rest In Peace. Manny

We were so sorry to hear of Keith's passing. such awful news.

My memories of him go all the way back to us both coaching our boys football and the support he gave me when he could easily have just taken charge. A wonderful man who we will both miss terribly. Love to all the family
