I am so pleased to share the good news about the appointments of our new Trust Chair and Vice-Chair. Our current Chair of the Trust Board Nigel Daniel explains more below and I would like to take this chance to wish Oliver and Pam best wishes from all of us in the Trust family for the important work they will be doing in the months and years ahead.

Nikki Edwards
CEO

I am delighted to announce that at the Trust Board Meeting last month, Oliver Cofler and Pam Cosh were elected Chair and Vice Chair respectively for the year commencing 1st September, 2023.
Oliver and Pam have served as Co-Vice Chairs in the current year and thus have a deep knowledge of our Trust as well as bringing extensive and complimentary skills and expertise to their roles. I know that I leave our Trust in great hands as I complete my second and final term as a Trustee; I wish Oliver, Pam and the whole Trust every success in the future.

Nigel Daniel
Chair of the Trust Board

In their own words

"Having worked with the trust for six years, I am delighted to take on the role of chair, and am really looking forward to working with everyone and supporting this fantastic organisation. Thanks to Nigel for his excellent leadership over the last few years and I am humbled and honoured to have the opportunity to follow in his footsteps.”

Oliver

“I value deeply this opportunity to work as vice chair of the board of trustees . I am looking forward to the challenge and responsibilities that this brings and hope to use my many years’ experience of teaching SEND learners to ensure all the children in the Trust schools have the best life chances. The Christian distinctiveness of the Trust permeates all its values and decisions and I hope to build on these foundations to support and enable all trustees, leaders, staff and pupils to be the ‘best version of themselves."
