Ian Cordingley

5th September 1950 - 2nd April 2010
Add to this grove

Ian was a well respected headteacher at Springfield Special School for 16 years. His aspirations for the children and young people in his care removed the boundaries of disability. When he moved into a consultancy role in 2006 he took up the challenge of promoting equality of educational opportunities for all irrespective of ability or disability. He will be sorely missed.

From the staff and pupils of Springfield School.

Only recently heard that Ian, my fellow Yorkshire student at UCL, had died. Last saw him at reunion 1997. Many happy memories of a funny and faithful friend and belated sympathy to all Ian's family.
