Congratulations Mr Dobbie! 25 Years of Service

The Dean Close Foundation is delighted to celebrate a wonderful moment for our community. Mr Jason Dobbie, now Head of Dean Close Airthrie School, first joined the Dean Close family 25 years ago as a gap student at Dean Close St John’s. From those early days, his commitment, warmth, and dedication to young people were already clear. Through his years of dedicated service, he has cared for countless children who have passed through our doors, be this as a teacher of Geography, as a Head of Boarding, Deputy Head and now as Head of Dean Close Airthrie.

Today,  Mr Dobbie continues to embody the values of love, courage and contribution that are vital to ensuring that all in our community flourish. His leadership, and care has inspired pupils and colleagues alike. His journey is a powerful reminder of how early experiences can shape a lifetime of purpose, and we are proud to recognise all that he brings to Airthrie and to the wider Dean Close community. I am sure you will join me in celebrating this important milestone with Mr Dobbie - we send him our warmest congratulations and deep gratitude for his loyalty and his outstanding and dedicated service to our community.
