Congratulations to our CEO Emma Wigmore who won CEO of the Year at the prestigious MAT Excellence Awards last week!
Emma was shortlisted earlier this year alongside seven other MAT CEOs nationwide.
The MAT Excellence Awards gives Trusts the opportunity to celebrate their achievements and recognise their impact on pupils, staff and the community.
Emma also spoke earlier in the day on the Strategic Leadership panel with the other shortlisted CEOs. They discussed what it meant to be an ambitious Trust, how the CEOs have embedded their vision and values and what it means to be a CEO.
Emma said, “I am so honoured to receive this wonderful award. Thank you to The Diocese of Chelmsford Vine Schools Trust community. It truly is a privilege to be your CEO. I can’t wait to see our Trust continue to develop and grow.”
The judges said they were impressed by Emma’s transformative leadership and commitment to high-quality service. “Through her ambitious three-year strategic plan, she reshaped the trust narrative, transforming outcomes and creating a flourishing organisation.”
Thank you also to Optimus Education for hosting this brilliant event.
