UCL Institute of Education appoints new Pro-Director (Operations)
The UCL Institute of Education is a world-leading centre for research and teaching in education and social science. Ranked number one for education worldwide in the 2014, 2015, 2016 and 2017 QS World University Rankings, the IOE was awarded the Queen’s Anniversary Prize in 2016. In 2014, the Institute secured ‘outstanding’ grades from Ofsted on every criterion for its initial teacher training, across primary, secondary and further education programmes. In the most recent Research Excellence Framework assessment of university research, the IOE was top for ‘research power’ (GPA multiplied by the size of the entry) in education. Founded in 1902, the Institute currently has more than 8,000 students and 800 staff. In December 2014, it became a single-faculty school of UCL, called the UCL Institute of Education (IOE)
Society conducted a thorough search which yielded a broad range of candidates from across sectors, though with a focus on higher education institutions.
From a strong shortlist of candidates, Daniel was appointed to the position from his post as Interim Pro-Director (Operations). Reflecting on his engagement with Society, Daniel commented:
“I found the process of working with Neena supportive and informative - I found I could be candid and honest and managed to gather information on the job and sort of personality required quickly and easily.”
