Mr Mercer
Replaced Miss Frazer as Second in Command in the Music Department. Plays piano and clarinet. Has a sense of humour, and is much easier to weasel away from than Miss Roberts on the subject of band/choir/woodwind group/jazz group/senior band attendance. Also does a rather nice dance. He showed his ability to caper during a school concert on various musical composers, and ended up doing a monkey impression for 'Gee Officer Krupkee'. If you didn't see it, you missed out...
He is famous for having a folding forehead while talking
