It is with great sadness that I write to inform the College community of the sudden death last Thursday of our esteemed colleague and friend, Mr Michael Crawford.
Michael joined the SOSE department in 2017 and he taught senior Economics and Legal Studies, as well as International Commerce and Geography to our younger secondary students. Michael’s intellect, wit, and charisma, as well as his passion for his subjects, meant that he was held in high regard by staff and students alike.
Michael is survived by his wife Eve, and children Tom, Jack, Harry, and Ellie, with the latter three all attending Radford.
Michael’s funeral service details are as follows:
