On 30th April the Rt Hon Michael Gove MP, Secretary of State for Education, visited John Mason School with local MP Nicola Blackwood and Chairman of Oxfordshire County Council Ian Hudspeth. The school wanted the visitors to see them on a regular school-day.

The Secretary of State got involved with students and staff in History, Art, Design Technology and Science.

He said afterwards “John Mason School is a school that, under a particularly inspirational head, is taking very very positive steps to provide students with a range of qualifications and the type of education that is relevant to the modern world. I’ve been very impressed by what I’ve seen.”
