At the end of the summer term this year, pupils and staff Dothill Primary School in Wellington will say goodbye to their headteacher, Becca Butler.
Mrs Butler is stepping down from the role after 31 years working in teaching and will replaced by Jenny Thomas, who will join the school from nearby Newdale Primary School.
