The trust, which runs six Yorkshire Coast Schools, will have a new Chief Executive from August.
Colin Sinclair will take over the role at Coast and Vale learning Trust in the summer. The trust comprises of six schools including Scalby School, Filey School, Lady Lumley’s School in Pickering, Scarborough UTC, Friarage Community Primary School and Newby and Scalby Primary School.
Colin joins Coast and Vale Learning Trust following a successful period where he led Sherborne Area Schools’ Trust. During Colin’s leadership of SAST, he and his newly created Senior Executive Team introduced a new school improvement framework which resulted in ten successful Ofsted inspections.
Prior to leading SAST, Colin served as Secondary Executive Director for Academies Enterprise Trust (AET), which has 58 schools nationwide. Previous posts include Director of Education, and Regional Director for several national multi-academy trusts.
Brian Crosby, departing CEO welcomed Colin to the Trust:
“It has been a privilege over the last 3 years to lay a solid foundation for Coast and Vale Learning Trust, and I am excited to see where Colin and our talented team will now develop the Trust. I wish him all the best in this exciting endeavour.”
On his appointment, Colin said:
“I am delighted and honoured to have been appointed as the next CEO of Coast and Vale Learning Trust. The Trust’s commitment and desire to place collaboration at the heart of continuous school improvement, through providing a rich educational experience that enables each child to achieve their ambition is one which I very much share.
I look forward to working with everyone at Coast and Vale to build upon the tremendous legacy that Brian Crosby and the team of committed staff have created. I’m also looking forward to relocating to beautiful North Yorkshire with my wife in the coming months.”
Colin says he believes passionately that education should empower curiosity and personal growth whilst inspiring a life-long love of learning in everyone, regardless of their social and cultural background.
The trust say
"Colin brings together a strategic vision with a focus on increasing school improvement capacity within the Trust, alongside great energy and ambition to propel Coast and Vale into the next stage of its development."
