Alistair Perry was Headteacher of CGS and Executive Headteacher of the Colston Girls’ School Trust when he was arrested and charged with a sexual assault on a child. Richard Wynn Jones, Anthony Brown and Trevor Smallwood defended his character and behaviour in court during the hearing, with Richard Wynn Jones, governor of both Dolphin Primary School and Bannerman Road Primary Academy, stating 'I have no doubt of his honesty, integrity or behaviour.’ Never have these SMV members apologised to families for putting their children at risk, as they allowed Alistair to remain in post for a year after his charge of sexual assault, with full access to children and young people in the schools they were responsible for.
