Following the retirement of Mrs Heather Beeby, Lancing College is pleased to announce that Mrs Francesca Milling will lead Lancing Prep Worthing from September 2023.
Mrs Milling moves up from her role as LPW’s Deputy Head where she already plays a significant part in the leadership and smooth running of the school, thus ensuring a seamless transition. Francesca comments, 'LPW enables our children to achieve their potential, whilst thoroughly enjoying their days here; I am thrilled to be taking on the leadership of our excellent school and continuing our work together.'
Paying tribute to Mrs Beeby, who has led Lancing Prep Worthing since 2014, Lancing College Head Master, Dominic Oliver observes, 'Over the past nine years, Heather has been a true leader with a relentless focus on what is good for the children. LPW pupils are extremely well-taught and are inculcated with a truly strong sense of community, responsibility and ethics. These strengths – and a great deal more – were recognised in the outstanding ISI 2022 Inspection report, where the school was given the highest grading of "excellent" across all inspection criteria.'
As for Mrs Beeby, it is with a mixture of sadness and excitement that she and her family prepare to move onto the next stage of their lives together. Mrs Beeby reflects, 'I have been immensely privileged to work with the LPW children. Leaving now is the right time for me and I know that the school will continue in the best possible hands.'
