Clive currently leads the development of educational opportunities at an inclusive multi-academy trust in the East and West Midlands, a MAT consisting of a group of pupil referral units (PRUs), alternative provision's (APs), special schools, and primary schools. Esteem’s vision is to be a ‘learning community of excellence for SEND and alternative provision’, Clive shares this ambition - to support children who are Looked After (LAC). He acknowledges his motivation is related to his own experiences with taking care of his family and he has been the guardian to his niece, with legal parental responsibility, since her birth.
His wealth of experience in various educational roles, from teaching to leading, as well as through his qualifications specialising in SEND and leadership, makes him an invaluable addition to our Trustee board and PACT community.

I am excited to work with; and support them, on their next stages of trust development and growth. I'm passionate about everything that PACT stands for and therefore it's a genuine honour to join their board of trustees."
