THE headteacher of Godolphin School in Salisbury is to leave next year after being appointed as head of the Benenden School in Kent.
Samantha Price, who has been headteacher at Godolphin since 2010, will take on her new role in the summer of 2014.
She said: “This has been one of the most difficult career decisions I have had to make.
“It would have been perfect to have another few years at Godolphin to see through some of our exciting plans but the opportunity to return to the roots which I built up previously in Kent, and the headship of a full boarding school like Benenden, were irresistible”
Chairman of governors Michael Nicholson said: “We are obviously sad that Mrs Price is leaving us but she will leave the school in excellent shape and we are very grateful for all she has done for Godolphin, which will continue to go from strength to strength.”
