Stuart joined One Education in 2016, bringing with him 15 years’ experience in the higher education sector. He offers strategic leadership and financial expertise developed within a varied and complex environment. Seeing the improvements that One Education’s single and multi-service support and interventions can make to already successful trusts and the resulting impact on pastoral care and educational outcomes for pupils is, by some way, the most satisfying part of his role.
