The long-standing headteacher of one of the region's most prominent schools has announced he is standing aside.
He says that once the appointments have been made he will be appointed"advisor consultant" to the new appointees"to support them and ensure continuity of the success of both the school and TTMAT". "As TTMAT grows to about ten schools from the existing five, Governors and Trustees have decided to split my role to two posts and make two appointments, a new Chief Executive of TTMAT and a new Head for Thomas Telford School.
In a statement to the Express & Star, Thomas Telford School said:"Sir Kevin Satchwell will be working part time as a consultant to the newly appointed head of Thomas Telford School and the newly appointed chief executive of Thomas Telford Multi Academy Trust.
One hopes all necessary measures will be put in place to ensure the maintenance of the wonderful standards that Sir Kevin Satchwell has established
A school that openly creams off the academically gifted and top individuals from other schools and has facilities, kit and equipment that other schools can only dream of. The TT spends a ridiculous amount of money on its management team and now they're adding more.
