“Mr Ainslie will take over from Mr Greenwood in September. However, he will be visiting us regularly in the meantime and getting to know staff and students ahead of taking up his new role. I know he is also keen to engage with parents and carers, and the wider local community, as we move forward.

“Following our recent Ofsted inspection and our first GCSE results this summer, Mr Ainslie will be leading the school forward to the next exciting phase of its development. He shares our ambitious vision for the school: aiming to balance being a high performing school with our caring, inclusive ethos.”
