With Guest Speaker Mrs Jackie Anderson, KHS Head Mistress 1987-2001
Saturday 21 March 2026, 11.00 – King’s High Hall

All Old Girls and former staff enjoyed catching up with old friends and new, a welcome from Head Master Dr Steve Burley, tours of the school and a delicious two-course lunch with wine and coffee.

We were delighted that Mrs Jackie Anderson had agreed to speak at the lunch. Mrs Anderson brought with her a shift in the school that reflected the wider social changes of the time. A graduate of Keele, she was the first married woman to take up the role, and she appointed the school’s first male teaching staff. With her modernisation of King’s High School came a focus on pastoral care and on encouraging girls to challenge themselves beyond the classroom.
