He relinquished his classroom role after becoming Principal in 2012.

He said: ‘We need to ensure that we are working as effectively as we can in key areas of our operation. We want to make sure we are talking to the right people, linked into the right groups of schools and using all of the data possible to gauge our progress.

‘My key skills are an understanding of data and how that can be translated to promote action in the right areas. We need to be able hold ourselves to account for Trust wide performance across a number of business indicators, ensuring that the right resource is deployed in the right areas to support the schools that we work with.
