Reed's In The News

We are excited to celebrate that today marks the 100th anniversary of Reed's tenth Headmaster taking up his appointment on 1st May 1924 when the school was based at Watford! Rev. George Kendall Allen was 40 years old and in his short tenure he made many significant changes that still shape the school that we are today. His main aim was to create a sense of belonging and to re-focus on team spirit and achievement rather than just on the individual. He introduced house names with houses overseen by Housemasters; he redefined the role of the School Captain supported by School and House Prefects and he made rugby the main winter sport in place of football. One pupil recalled, “His arrival at Watford was like warm summer sunshine after a cold bleak winter.” #Headmaster #headmaster #schoolhistory #aremarkableman
