I look forward to meeting with you during the course of the 5-year plan to assist implementation of the plan occurs in the most timely and efficient manner possible.

The interesting articles that are contained within this newsletter are but a snapshot of the various activities, initiatives and educational developments that have occurred since the summer newsletter. However it is a source of great pride that, our school and centres are education and training providers of choice in our community and that so many achieve so much out of this provision. Our staff educate and train over 20,000 learners each year from the combined population of approximately 265,000 across both counties. When you add those figures over a few years and include family connections, it is clear that our influence is widely felt in our community. It is vital that we continue to evolve and adapt to meet the changing and emerging needs of our community and I am very confident that we will continue to do just that and more.
