The Ladies’ College said it has affirmed its commitment to student well-being and enrichment by appointing two new Deputy Principals.
Existing members of the senior leadership team have taken on the positions, with Nicola Ingrouille appointed Deputy Principal for Student Well-Being and Nick Dyson now the Deputy Principal for Culture, Community, and Enrichment.
Morag Herring, Vice Principle, said they are two very important roles within the school.
“These two new leadership roles reflect our commitment to ensuring that every student benefits from an exceptional educational experience.
“We know that academic success, wellbeing, enrichment and community engagement are deeply interconnected, and by strengthening strategic leadership in these areas, we are investing in the whole person.”
Ms Ingrouille’s role connects pastoral care, learning support and personal development under one leadership role.
She said: “Preparing girls for the future is about far more than academic results. We want every student to feel known, supported and brave enough to challenge herself, whilst building the resilience and self-awareness she will draw on throughout her life.
“At the heart of this is a deep understanding that every girl is unique. Each has something to offer that nobody else can. When we help her recognise that, we give her more than confidence, we show her she isn’t defined by what’s been done before, but by what she alone can do next.”
Mr Dyson said his new role comes at a time of ongoing change for the school and their pupils.
“In my 16 years of experience in an all-girls school, there has been been a more important time to develop skills to help our students navigate this rapidly changing world.
“Our students play and create, analyse and adapt, lead and influence whilst spending time getting to know themselves.
“I am incredibly proud of our Pathways programme, wider co-curriculum and the way these opportunities are embedded with traditional academic pursuits.
“I’m excited to strengthen opportunities and extend our links with the wider Guernsey community, so every student leaves the College with the curiosity and capability to thrive in whatever comes next.”
Ms Herring added that the two new roles align well-being, personal-development and everyday learning more closely – which is something Ladies’ College values.
“These appointments will help us to inspire our girls to become engaged citizens, compassionate leaders and positive contributors to their communities. I am incredibly excited about the impact these roles will have in helping us deliver our vision and supporting every girl to flourish.”
