Practically all the current references are to the union’s self-published information. Sources support not only verifiability, but notability, too. Wikipedia aims mostly to reflect what ”others” have said about a topic, not what the topic says about itself. I’m sorry to report that I’ve deleted almost all the staff directory information. There’s a guide at ”[[Wikipedia:WikiProject Schools/Article advice]]” which you should read. You’ll see “While naming the head teacher or principal is permitted, lists or detailed information about current or former pupils, parents of current or former pupils, administrative staff, school secretaries, current or former teachers etc. is usually inappropriate.” This might be discouraging for you, but it’s how Wikipedia works right now.
