Very sad to hear of the passing of Sir Tim Brighouse this evening - the establishment of @CU_Trust was down to this education powerhouse and he still inspires our vision and our passion for equality in learning beyond the classroom today #TimBrighouseRIP

This is formal but here goes. The family of Sir Tim Brighouse are very sad to announce that Tim died in the John Radcliffe Hospital today after a short illness. He was a loving husband, father, grandfather and great grandfather and a towering figure in the word of education. 1/
