Oliver Warmly Welcomed Back to Hertswood Academy

Oliver Dowden recently visited Hertswood Academy.

Oliver was joined by Cllr Morris Bright and Cllr Natalie Susman and they were welcomed by headteacher, Mr Peter Gillett.

During the visit Oliver received a tour of the school, meeting with pupils who had a number of questions prepared to ask him.

Oliver said: ‘I once again had the pleasure of visiting Hertswood Academy, alongside Cllr Morris Bright and Cllr Natalie Susman.

‘Headteacher, Mr Gillett, gave us a tour of the school, which was refurbished in 2019.

‘After the tour, I had a Q&A session with Year 13 politics students covering topics such as local crime, education and refugees.

‘It is great to see the school doing so well and it is full of bright young minds.’

Our local state schools provided me with an excellent education. I will never forget the debt of gratitude that I owe to Parmiters’ School in Watford. The great education I got there enabled me to do so much with my life, whether it was winning a place at Cambridge University, working for the Prime Minister or having the privilege of being elected as a Member of Parliament.
