Stephen W. Foxwell[1] is a head teacher who has been teaching students for thirty years[1] in schools all over the world including Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Nigeria, the Cayman Islands, and the UK,[2] twelve of which have been spent in senior leadership positions.[2] He was headmaster of the British School of Houston[3] until 18 December 2014. He controversially resigned during the 2008/2009 academic year from headmastership at Overton Grange School[3] after being awarded a £150,000 "golden-goodbye",[4] despite leading the school through the worst exam results it had ever had, along with the attempted billing the school for art purchases from a gallery in Brighton.[4] Foxwell is a Porsche car owner and enthusiast.
