Ben moves on

THE head teacher of May Park Primary School is leaving to take charge of a troubled city secondary school.

Vanetta Spence, who is known as Ben, took over at May Park in 2019 after the school had been placed in special measures by Ofsted following an inspection and has spent the last three years working to transform its fortunes.

She has now been appointed as the new head teacher of Montpelier High School, which was described as inadequate, with "serious weaknesses", in a shock Ofsted report last March and subsequent monitoring visit in December.

Ms Spence, who spent 16 years in senior leadership roles at Fairfield High School before taking charge at May Park, said: "I am determined to lead MHS on a journey of rapid and sustainable improvement that will benefit all students, irrespective of their starting points."
