Andy Nuttall

The Downs Malvern
United Kingdom
Andy joined The Downs Malvern in 2022, following a successful tenure as Deputy Head of Windlesham House School in Sussex where he had previously fulfilled the roles of Head of Science and Houseparent. A Zoology graduate from Imperial College London, he completed his PGCE at University of Bath and holds an MEd in Educational Leadership and Management from Buckingham University.



Before joining Windlesham House School, he also taught at Cheam School in Hampshire, in addition to spending four years as Head of Science at The Banda School in Nairobi, where he met his wife, Polly; an experienced prep school teacher.



Since joining The Downs Malvern, Andy has placed a particular emphasis on educating and involving pupils in environmental issues, and has augmented the school's provision considerably, with the introduction of its small holding of chickens, quail, pigs and sheep. In 2023, the school was awarded both Best Eco Initiative in the Muddy Stilettos School Awards and shortlisted for Small Independent School of the Year in the Independent School of the Year Awards, in addition to achieving Eco Schools Status.



Very much the outdoorsman, Andy is a keen cross-country runner, enjoys fly fishing, looking after the family’s chickens and quail and gardening with his children, to list a few of his interests.
