The founding chief executive of one of the country’s largest academy trusts will step down in December – the third large trust boss leave their role this year.
Jon Chaloner, chief executive of GLF Schools, said “the time is right” for a change after 25 years in school leadership.
With 42 schools, GLF is the country’s twelfth largest trust. The departure of Chaloner, 53, follows that of John Murphy, who announced in April he would be leaving Oasis Community Learning, the country’s sixth largest trust, to pursue other projects in education.
Nick Hudson is also retiring from leading 43-school Ormiston Academies Trust at the end of this academic year, with Ambition Institute’s Tom Rees to take over the helm.
