I haven't seen anything like this from my son's school.

Roland is quite right. At the secret base to which he alluded one of the educators was indeed copted onto the board of governors.
I was at a cocktail party when I saw her, didn't know she was the educator and governor, and she had been pinged to host the headmaster. As it happens I knew the HM from the other base where Ogre was. Both my daughters had been to his earlier school.
I took him off her hands.
As it happens he had previously asked about service children; mine two were much in the minority. One other reason was so they could be aware when dad, or mum, was OOA or was aircrew . . .
I also know the retired HM of Clinton Park School, he said it was a rare event for someone to start at the school and complete the whole stage of education there. That the school actually needs to ask OTOH is odd.
