I first met Jonathan when he was headteacher of St.Silas and I had been asked to be a school governor.
I was impressed by Jonathan and his school immediately and it was no surprise that he went on to do even greater things.
He was a real inspiration to so many and gave so much of himself for others.
As Chair of the Liverpool DBE I want to thank him for his passion for education and his support.
He was not just a colleague but also a friend and I will miss him very much.
RIP
