Carer, I am writing to introduce myself ... - Lower Meadow

Dear Parent/Carer, I am writing to introduce myself as the CEO Designate of Reach4. As you know, Lower Meadow is joining the Reach4 family on 1 July. We have been working closely with Angela Clarke for some time now and I want to reassure you that the transition will be a seamless one, building on the strong foundations that are already in place. Reach4 was established in 2015, with a view to working with primary, secondary and all-through schools in the South Yorkshire region. The organisation is a sister trust to REAch2, the largest and most successful primary academy Trust in the country. Reach4 is jointly led by Sir Steve Lancashire (the founder of REAch2 and Reach4) and me. Reach4 has the highest expectations when it comes to academic results, but our aspirations go well beyond the concept of ‘schooling’. We passionately believe in ‘inspiration beyond measure’ and are committed to delivering an education with no boundaries. For us, that means not just academic excellence, but helping children and young people develop in the broadest sense through arts, sports, leadership opportunities, enrichment and community. We appreciate that you may have questions about Lower Meadow joining Reach4, and so we are hosting a coffee afternoon for parents to meet me and the wider Reach4 team on Wednesday 16th March at 2.30 at Lower Meadow. In the meantime, you can read more about Reach4 on our website: www.Reach4.org.uk, or if you have any pressing questions, please do get in touch with me directly: [email protected]. Yours sincerely,

Libby Nicholas Designate CEO Reach4
