Whilst at Steyning Grammar School, he was responsible for innovation in the teaching of mathematics. In addition he was the Mathematics Co-ordinator for Year 11 Intervention, a pilot programme focused on under performing pupils. That year the school achieved the highest proportion of A*- C grades in its history of GCSE maths results.
Mr Walsh has a strong reputation for his innovative approach to teaching and an ability to relate well to young people. He has been involved for many years in providing both traditional and alternative forms of education and his contributions to these fields have been recognised by significant figures such as Cherie Blair and HRH Prince of Wales.
