The British School in Tokyo welcomes the arrival of its new Principal, Mr Ian Clayton, starting from Term 3 of 2023-2024 academic year.
Mr Clayton is originally from the UK. He worked for 16 years in the UK as a history teacher, head of faculty, head of house and senior teacher. He also was seconded to teach and lecture on the PGCE course at the University of East Anglia. He then became head of the senior school at the British School Manila, a founding FOBISIA school. In 2009 he moved to join the English Schools Foundation where he was a Vice Principal for 5 years. For the last 10 years he has worked as Head of the International Stream at the French International School in Hong Kong.
Mr Clayton joins us with his wife and they have two sons studying in the UK. He loves sport, following football, cricket, rugby, but F1 not so much! He is committed to developing and nurturing BST on the next part of its journey.
