Shimla, March 1

Simon Weale, MA (Oxon), has been appointed as the new Director of Bishop Cotton School (BCS), Shimla, succeeding Roy Robinson, who retires after 15 years of service as the headmaster.

The appointment of Weale was announced after an extensive search by the Board of Governors together with an international recruitment consultancy. PK Samantaroy, Bishop CNI Diocese of Amritsar and Chairman of the BCS Board of Governors, said, “At BCS, we must maintain our incredible track record of producing young men who will make a positive difference to both India and the rest of the world.” Weale began his career as a history teacher and subsequently worked in some of the UK’s finest schools in a career spanning 30 years. His last post was as headmaster of Shebbear College, Devon. — TNS

The Tribune, now published from Chandigarh, started publication on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan). It was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist, and is run by a trust comprising five eminent persons as trustees.

The Tribune, the largest selling English daily in North India, publishes news and views without any bias or prejudice of any kind. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language and partisanship, are the hallmarks of the newspaper. It is an independent newspaper in the real sense of the term.

The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
