After 13 years, five of which have been across Myddle and Baschurch, Lorraine Knight has decided to take early retirement. We will sadly be losing Lorraine at the end of May so that she can spend more time with her family, looking after her grandchildren, cycling and going on holiday among other things!
Lorraine has been an valued part of our leadership team and ensured that both schools have gone from strength to strength over the years. Her careful budgeting, planning and foresight have been integral in securing a 7th classroom to be built at Baschurch, increasing to 4 full time classes at Myddle, running our own nursery at Myddle, managing our own catering teams, the upcoming remodelling of the entrance at Myddle and numerous other projects which have benefitted our children and staff over the years. We will really miss Lorraine and I hope you will be able to call in and wish her well over the next few weeks before she leaves.
Yesterday, we interveiwed for a new SBM and had a very strong field of applicants. We are delighted to announce that the strongest candidate was Nicky Cadman, and she will take over from Lorraine after May half term. Nicky has worked at Baschurch for nine years and has covered in the office at Myddle several times so is well known to all staff, but is looking forward to getting to know the wider school communities better as she develops into the role.
