I'm Lisa Vyas and I am the Chief Executive Officer working across the Kingsway Community Trust.

 

 I have a strong commitment to working in Manchester and have taught in this area for the whole of my teaching career.  I became Headteacher at Ladybarn in 1998 and Green End in 2007, taking it from special measures within 7 months. Cringle Brook Primary opened in 2014 and became our third Trust school.

 

 I was in the first cohort of Primary school improvement partners and I have also mentored future headteachers through the Manchester Aspiring Leaders programme. I have a passion for working in urban schools to raise aspiration and self-belief of children and their families.

​

 I am passionate about enabling all children in our local communities to have the very best possible educational opportunities. I have extremely high expectations of all the children, both in terms of their academic achievement and their emotional and social development.
