We are pleased to have supported St Mary’s Calne with the appointment of their new Chief Operating Officer, Colonel Ross Cleland.
Ross will join the school in Spring 2026 and will be responsible for key operational areas including finance, estates, HR, health and safety and commercial activities.
Speaking on his appointment, Ross said: ‘I am deeply honoured to have been selected by the Head and Board of Governors to be the Chief Operating Officer at St Mary’s Calne and St Margaret’s Prep. Visiting the schools and meeting the team through the selection process, it was clear why parents say Calne is such a special place and I was immediately drawn to the warm, inclusive, welcoming environment and the personal values-based approach to the development of pupils. I am genuinely excited to join such a high performing team and really looking forward to serving the pupils, parents, staff and Governors of Calne, and playing a part in the development of such brilliant young people.’
We would like to wish Ross and the school every success.
