Robin Andrew Kemp (born 29 September 1984) is an English former cricketer and educator.[1] He played in five first-class matches between 2005 and 2008, representing Cambridge University and Cambridge UCCE. Following his cricketing career, he became a teacher and school leader, serving in senior academic roles in the United Kingdom.[2]
Kemp made his first-class debut in the 2005 University Match at Fenner’s.[1] He retained his place in the side for the following three years, appearing in the 2006, 2007, and 2008 matches. His only other first-class appearance came for Cambridge UCCE against Derbyshire in 2007.[1]
A right-arm medium pace bowler, Kemp’s best figures came in the 2008 University Match, where he took 3 wickets for 23 runs.[1] Across his five first-class matches, he bowled 636 deliveries, claimed 10 wickets, and maintained a bowling average of 33.90.[1]
Professional career
After completing his studies, Kemp trained as a history teacher. He began his teaching career in Essex, working at Moulsham High School in Chelmsford, where he rose to the position of Deputy Headteacher.[2] He later held senior leadership roles in Suffolk schools.[citation needed]
In September 2025, Kemp was appointed Deputy Head Academic at King’s Ely, a co-educational independent school in Cambridgeshire.[2]
Legacy
While Kemp’s cricketing career was modest in statistical terms, his repeated selection for the University Match highlights his standing within Cambridge cricket during the mid-2000s.[1] His later career in education has seen him contribute to the leadership of several schools.[2]
