Mike Kane

Born and educated in Belfast, Mike left the Emerald Isle to study his MA in English Literature at the University of Aberdeen before then going on to take his PGDE. Teaching began in Aberdeen and Elgin before soon after taking up a post at Stewart's Melville College as a teacher of English with a side line in coaching hockey and cricket. Mike joined the management team at Stewart's Melville College 15 years ago, before more recently ‘jumping ship’ to become Headmaster of the Junior School. He is married with three children. As a younger man, his two main interests were karate and cricket. There are still the occasional forays into the social side of cricket at Inverleith, but mostly time is taken up watching his and everyone else’s children perform on the stage or the sports field.
