After a short time with OWN Trust, Lorraine Greco has been offered a new and exciting role as an His Majesty’s Chief Inspector of Schools within Ofsted. OWN Trust recognises this is a wonderful opportunity for Lorraine to develop her career and continue to make a difference to the lives of children in England’s schools. Lorraine successfully developed the Early Years provision across the trust, challenged how early years reading was developed through the rigorous use of Little Wandle Phonics in each school and also ensured outcomes for all children in each school improved in every year group.

The interim role as CEO of OWN Trust and our accounting officer will be carried out by Mark Woods, the CEO of Meridian Trust.

Please join me in wishing Lorraine all the best for the future career within Ofsted.
