Trust Leadership Team
Our Academy Trust Leadership Team consists of a dedicated team of professionals who deal with the day-to-day management of all of our schools under the guidance of the Executive Headteacher, Michael Johnson.
This results in seamless management across all of the schools in the Trust, and ensures that every child benefits from our unique flexibility to share resources, expertise and best practice across the schools.

We are all proud of Chulmleigh Academy Trust and our family of schools. We are here to work with you so that we, together, promote ambition and inspire all the children in our care.
Neil Payne - Deputy Executive Headteacher
I am passionate about raising standards in education and my role centres around Teaching and Learning and the Curriculum. I am also the Senior Designated Officer for Child Protection at the College. I have worked in a number of schools and at the College previously, as Head of Religious Education, and bring this wide experience to my role.
Tina Harrison - Business Manager
As Academy Business Manager I am responsible for the strategic oversight, operation and delivery of support services within the Trust.
As you can imagine the role is varied and no two days are the same. I feel it is a real privilege to work for the Trust.
Sarah Healey - Primary Deputy Executive Headteacher
I am responsible for the Trust Primary schools. I have over 20 years’ experience in Primary education and have been the headteacher of four different schools before joining the Chulmleigh family. I have always found my job incredibly rewarding, so working with a group of schools and the children and staff within them, is a real joy.
Louise Miller-Marshall - SENDCo
As Academy SENDCo I am committed to supporting children with special educational needs and disabilities across all schools within the Trust. My role is to ensure that all necessary considerations are in place to enable our pupils to achieve their very best and enjoy their time with us. I believe that all children have a right to achieve success and fulfilment of their potential. In addition, I am the Deputy Designated Safeguarding Lead.
Claire Fallow - Estates Manager
My role within the trust is to look after all the buildings and surrounding grounds in terms of repairs and maintenance and also to ensure all items of plant and equipment have been serviced so that we meet our compliance requirements. Ultimately, I am responsible for creating a safe and well-maintained environment within which students have the best environment to learn.
I also fulfil the role of Company Secretary and Data Protection Officer.
My role is varied and very rewarding. It is the first time that I have worked in facilities management in a school and I am looking forward to contributing to such a successful Academy Trust.
