A comprehensive list of all former Heads, teachers, and support personnel at Hertford is something we are working to develop. Please get in touch with us if you can add to the list. Mr. Hickman was one of the original instructors at our school. Later, he rose to the position of headteacher. We are very grateful to his son Michael who has allowed us access to Mr Hickman's personal photo album - presented to him on his retirement. The pictures are shown below.
