Retiring as acting head of Kinlocheven Primary School, Peter Carrick was given a special send-off by pupils at a football-themed assembly with pies, Bovril and team scarves to match his love of the game. A lifelong fan of Clyde FC, Mr Carrick began his teaching career in 1978 in Irvine, working in schools across Ayrshire before taking up a post in Kinlochleven 13 years ago, teaching most classes in the school.
