Weston College has appointed a new principal who will assume office 21 months after the post was first advertised.
Pat Jones, currently deputy chief executive for finance at Bedford College Group, will lead the college from July following multiple failed attempts by Weston’s governors to appoint a permanent successor to Paul Phillips.
“I am delighted to be joining Weston College as their new principal and CEO at this exciting time,” Jones said.
“Weston has achieved so much, and I look forward to leading the dedicated and talented team, building upon the many successes.”
