New Head of Maidenhead Children and Young People's Services

The Maidenhead Royal Borough has appointed a new head of children and young people's services.

Cliff Turner, a qualified teacher and educational psychologist with 25 years experience in education, joins the Maidenhead borough's Learning and Care directorate from Hampshire County Council next month.

Married with three children, Cliff has worked for three local education authorities in the Midlands and for the last 14 years in Hampshire.

He takes up the reins of the newly-created post and will be responsible for services for Maidenhead children and young people in the borough including education, social care and the youth service.

Jim Gould, director of Learning and Care, said: "I am delighted to confirm Cliff's appointment which follows a tough round of interviews against strong competition from a very high standard of applicants who made it to the shortlist.

"He really impressed the interview panel who felt he had all the qualities needed to take on this responsible and ground-breaking post.

"I am looking forward to working with him to take forward our plans to ensure that all children and young people in the borough re given the best possible life opportunities."
