WILMSLOW High School has appointed a leading academic at a deputy headteacher
Ruth Powley has been teaching for 22 year and has worked in secondary schools across the Midlands and the North West of England.
She said: "I have also worked as a senior leader consultant and I publish articles and speak at national conferences on high quality teaching and stretching more able students. I am a passionate historian, having
studied for my degree at York University, and my other interests are writing, singing and running."
She added: "When the Head Boy and Head Girl asked me what made me decide to apply for a job at Wilmslow the answer was easy; Wilmslow High School is the school I would want my children to go to.
"The school has an excellent reputation across Cheshire and I am thrilled to be joining a first-rate team of leaders and staff.
"My role in the school will be to support Dr Pullé in ensuring that Wilmlow High School continues to offer an excellent education for each and every one of its students."
