The principal of a Nottingham school has stepped down from their position months after they took on the role in April. Parents with pupils at Bulwell Academy received a letter on Monday, October 31, stating that principal Sara Wildes had stepped down from her position "with immediate effect".
In the letter, Ms Wildes stated: "Despite only having been at the school for a short time, I have decided now is the right time to move on and pursue other opportunities. I feel privileged to have worked with so many great staff and students and to have briefly known the local community. "I wish the school, staff, and students all the best for the future."
Sam Williamson has taken on the role of interim head of school. To maintain stability in its leadership, the school will also be welcoming Chris Keen, the current principal at Ellis Guildford School, who has taken on the role of executive principal for the academy and will be leading both schools.
