zan was ok but quite young both on and off field. ive been a parent at this school for many years ive seen such greats as Ms Grant Then Ms Whiting, but i too dont think zan was quite right in our school community which as ms stevens says is quite advanced compaired to the rest in the region- which i believe ms whiting was mostly and ms stevens for making it happen. our loss is loosing both ms whiting and ms stevens. thankyou for ur time as fill in mr branford.

I think Mr Bradford should definitely have been selected for the job if he wanted to stay on. He is an excellent Principal, all the kids seem to like and respect him. He is very friendly and approachable and seems to genuinely enjoy his job. Please don't change him out for someone else, I'm sure this new lady is great but I think if you find a great Principal already let's not put the kids through more change some find it hard to adjust and have to get used to someone new again. My kids enjoyed Mr Bradford occasionally having a round of handball.

Why punish the kids, parents, staff, and Zan by getting rid of him when he wants proudly to be only at Ipswich West and everyone else wants him here.
Noone wants him to leave Ipswich West why change principles when everyone would agree in letting Zan stay! I cant belive how sad EVERYONE was to hear Zan is leaving. People were CRYING !

Most definitely the best principal Ipswich west state school has had in the 14 years all of my children have attended this school. I’m now torn as to wether I am going to send my youngest child to Ipswich west state school next year to start prep. Bring back this awesome man to be our school principal.

I am not a parent of this school no more but I do still follow as much of what is happening there.
Now when my children attended they had said principal Mr Case. Unfortunately he was replaced elsewhere 2 yrs before my children finished primary school. Mr Case was do passionate n devoted to all the kids. He knew all personally n he interacted awesomely with all the kids. In saying that once Mr Case left all that awesome atmosphere left also.
Now it looks like that atmosphere is back and the school is thriving once again.
I am here to sign so as this said current principal is kept here to continue the awesome work he is doing. From all comments read he is the next Mr Case generation and to be like that is amazing. I give praise where it is deserved and this man is dedicated to making children's education a safe fun happy consistency.
Do not upset our future generation by taking that from them.

Mr Branford has proved to be an exceptional principle over the past 17 months at Ipswich west. Loved and admired by students, staff and parents. As a parent of two children attending Ipswich west I can happily attest to the wonderful job he has done as our schools principle. As a school community we were both disappointed and saddened to hear he was unsuccessful in obtaining the permanent position of principle at our school. As a school community we would be delighted if his application was reconsidered and he was able to continue the good work he has demonstrated over the past 17 months.
Kindest Regards

I have meant him a couple of times in the last two years, and in that time we are about to lose two principles what a joke. Our children need a stable person running our school, and from what I hear from our son he is great with the kids and seems to be running the school in a great manner that only has the well-being of our children in mind. My son (Benjamin) speaks highly of Zan, he tell me that Zan gets down on the oval on mondays to play abit of soccer with the kids gees I could only wish to of had a principle like that when I went to school. We can not keep replacing teachers like this.
