About me
My name is Andrew Macalpine (no relation as you'll see when I start building) and I live in north London. I still work (just!) as a freelance education consultant. Previously, I worked as a headteacher in two mixed secondary schools and inbetween was an inspector for a couple of years.
Last year I spent a week labouring as a builder on an ActionAid sponsored tsunami project in Sri Lanka. You could say I'm an old hand but rather more old than hand. My daughter is a fund raiser for ActionAid which is how I got into the tsunami project. It was a fantastic experience working with the Sri Lankans (including a brilliant 19 year old Sri Lankan foreman) and it is that experience which has resulted in me giving building abroad a second go.
