Town Close, an independent prep school in Norwich, has welcomed Nick Tiley-Nunn as its new headmaster.

Nick joins Town Close with a wealth of educational and headship experience, most recently as head of Ashford Prep School in Kent.

He is also a specialist in primary mathematics, a published author and educational consultant, and a team inspector for the Independent Schools Inspectorate (ISI).

“Town Close is a truly remarkable school, and this has been a longstanding dream role of mine,” said Nick. “I cannot wait to work with the entire community in leading the school into its exciting next chapter, building on the school’s impressive local and national reputation.”

A proud East Anglian himself, Nick is overjoyed to return to Norfolk with his wife, Rachel, and his two children who now attend Town Close as pupils.

“Returning to Norfolk is the icing on the cake for us as a family,” he said. “The county offers infinite opportunity to embrace our collective love of the outdoors and to reconnect with the thriving local community in and around Norwich.

“I look forward to forging even greater links between the school and our incredible local environment, maximising opportunities for all of our pupils to engage with and benefit from everything that Norfolk and the east of England has to offer.’”
