THE principal of one of the country’s most-improved primary schools has been invited by the government to be a national leader of education to help drive improvement in other schools.
Sam Bailey is principal of Forest Academy at Kendray, and is also executive principal of two other Barnsley schools - all three members of the Wellspring Academies Trust.
“The Department of Education has just written to invite me to be a national leader of education, and to invite the school to be a designated national support school,” she said.
We have been at the heart of our community, every week, since 1858. The town and its people have changed dramatically since then but the Chronicle has been a constant.
It’s our belief that news should be available to everyone regardless of their circumstance. But we need a little helping hand to do so.
Production Editor, Ashley Ball, said: "In an ever changing media world, it’s important that news is reported correctly and without any hidden agenda.
Your support allows us to keep holding decision-makers to account and report on everything that happens in the town, good or bad, fairly."
