I was fortunate enough to work with Dave for 10 years. I learned so much from him. He was wise, kind, patient and a constant source of support. We laughed so much. What an incredible privilege to go to work every day and have so much fun. The legend lives on. Timetables across Surrey schools are constructed Dave’s way and the lives of students and teachers are better for it. I miss Dave terribly but I am proud and grateful that he was my friend.
