Peter Bratton, the headteacher of Hove Park School and Sixth Form Centre, will be retiring in July after 18 years of distinguished service to the school.

Many students have passed through the school during that time and we should be delighted to hear from any of our ex-students and parents of former students who would be interested in attending an event to mark the occasion, which is planned for an evening in mid-July.

Any former student or parent interested in "being there" should contact either of us as soon as possible.
