From the Ormiston NEW Academy
I am thrilled to have been chosen as the Ormiston North East Wolverhampton Academy's principal, and I am looking forward to working with everyone and getting to know them. We have stuff to do, so there won't be a bedding-in period. I am fortunate to have a strong group of people working with me, and we are off to a great start. Standards must and will be raised if we are to realise this excellent school's full potential. I support giving young people the finest chances and the resources they require to thrive in life. The secret to this success is excellent instruction and a strong sense of community. I will work tirelessly to raise student results overall because our community deserves no less. I understand the value of communication; open the lines of communication and engage in conversation. I always welcome visitors. Please get in touch with me by calling or via social media. Together, let's find solutions to issues, talk about opportunities, and guarantee that our children receive the finest education possible.
