I am pleased to inform you that following interview, Mrs Ormond has been appointed as Acting Head Teacher of West Primary. She will take up this position from Monday 14 November when I will begin my secondment as ASN Manager. I am sure you will join me in wishing her well in her new role which I am sure she will carry out very effectively.

Mrs Ormond’s role of DHT will be filled following interview this week and we will let you know the outcome of this in due course.

Yours sincerely

Mrs Ferguson
