To: Parents/Carers of Pupils at Kilmarnock & James Hamilton Academies

Dear Parent/Carer

I am delighted to announce that Mr David Rose has been appointed as Head Teacher of Kilmarnock Academy in the McIlvanney Campus which is due to open in 2018.

Mr Rose will be known to staff and parents from both the existing Kilmarnock Academy and James Hamilton Academy as he has spent part of his career in each establishment.

Mr Rose will take up his duties immediately and will lead the preparations for the move to the new campus and the necessary preparations for bringing the two learning communities into one new education group.

I am sure you will join me in wishing Mr Rose every success in his new post.

Yours sincerely

ALAN WARD
Head of Education
