Principal
Mr Ransome was appointed as the new Principal at Wath Academy in September 2020. As Deputy Headteacher at Kingswood Academy, he was responsible for Teaching and Learning, Behaviour, Inclusion and Attendance, and was part of the senior leadership team which led the school from ‘Inadequate’ to ‘Good’, delivering a Progress 8 score of +1.17. He has also worked as Deputy Headteacher at Amnuay SIlpa Bilingual School in Bangkok, Thailand where he implemented a safeguarding system, a new behaviour and rewards policy, attendance and punctuality systems and created the inhouse staff leadership development programme. In the summer of 2022 at Wath Academy, Mr Ransome and his team delivered the academies best ever results with outcomes that place them well above national averages for progress and attainment. An exciting new curriculum which includes Enrichment during the school day has also been developed and is set to launch in September 2023.
