Meet the Team

Get to know our staff!

Mr Rigby

Vice Principal/DSL

I can’t begin to tell you how honoured I am to be part of such an inspiring Senior Leadership Team such as this at Co-op Academy Swinton. Prior to starting my role, I taught for 24 years at Fred Longworth High School in Tyldesley as a PE Teacher, Head of Year and Acting Assistant Headteacher.

I am currently responsible for Behaviour and Attendance in the academy and these areas are where my passion for teaching lies. I hope to embed a culture whereby all students are able to thrive and gain the soft skills they will use for the rest of their lives.

I live by the saying ‘standards and status’. By setting and being true to the highest standards, you become the very best version of yourself. I hope that I continue to inspire students to do this during my time at Co-op Academy Swinton.
