A Tribute to Peter Lee-Smith

Posted: 16/02/2021

It is with great sadness that we announce the death of Peter Lee-Smith, former Headmaster of Bromsgrove Preparatory School (2001-2008). During Peter’s time, the Prep School underwent significant improvement and growth – pupil numbers increased and the long-awaited Maple building for Years 3-5 was opened. He was also one of the driving forces behind the Saturday activities programme.

His colleagues will remember him as a leader with great determination, care and consideration for all. His sense of responsibility for the welfare of the children was always a priority and he took great pride in greeting children every morning and supervising their departure each evening. His relationship with parents was equally impressive and he developed a rapport with the Parents’ Association.

Following retirement, Peter was never going to fully give up school life completely, so he took on a new role within lAPS, an organisation which supports and maintains the highest standards in prep schools.

We say goodbye to a true gentleman and our thoughts and prayers go to Sue and the rest of the family at this sad time.
