Academy Trust Leadership

A new CEO (Whole School - 01/12/2020)

Dear Parents and Carers,

On behalf of the Nova Board I am delighted to announce that following a rigorous interview process we have appointed Ash Rahman as permanent CEO of Nova Education Trust from 1 May 2021.

I am sure that you will all join me in congratulating Ash on this appointment. Ash is an outstanding leader who is highly respected and regarded both within and outside of this organisation. I and the board believe he is well placed and equipped to build upon Nova’s strong foundations to make the Trust even more successful in the future and are eagerly looking forward to working with him to realise our shared ambitions of continuing to provide the very best education for all our learners.

I would like to take this opportunity to thank you for your continued support and commitment to our schools. Directors of the Board are incredibly proud of the way our staff and governors have pulled together during what has been an unprecedented period of time in order to keep our schools open and our learners learning. I also wish to address those of you that have been affected by this pandemic, personally or through your nearest relatives and send you my heartfelt thoughts and wish you a speedy recovery. We will emerge from this crisis stronger and in the meantime I wish you and your family a merry Christmas and a happy and healthy New Year.

Yours faithfully,
Albert Woods, OBE
Chair of NET Board
