Richard Thornhill, Head of School at the British International School of Boston, welcomes you to campus and talks of his commitment to building BISB's reputation as one of the best private schools in Boston.
Welcome to the British International School of Boston!
I regard it as a privilege to be Head of School of The British International School of Boston. To have the opportunity to lead such a wonderful international school community in a city with rich culture is something I cherish every day.
Before coming to Boston, I served as the Head of School in Beijing, Shunyi. Prior to joining the Nord Anglia family of schools, I graduated with a Bachelor of Education (Honours, QTS) at Nottingham Trent University. I have been a Headteacher, Executive Headteacher and most recently Chief Executive Officer of a federation of schools in London for over twenty years. This experience has involved the full school age range and the delivery of the highest quality educational provision.
I was appointed one of the first National Leaders of Education in the UK and have served on the Boards of the Training and Development Agency for Schools and the National College for School Leadership, both in the UK.
Above all, however, is my passion to see young people succeed. There is no greater joy for a professional educator than to see students, grow, develop and blossom. All of us at BISB are committed to provide the highest quality of education and thus turn our students dreams and ambitions into reality.
