It has been announced on the Governor’s Facebook page that Mr. Bren Romney is to become the next Chief Education Officer in Anguilla.
The announcement stated that “the Honourable Deputy Governor, Mr. Perin Bradley, has approved a recommendation from the Public Service Commission for Mr. Romney to assume the appointment after Mrs. Rhonda Connor retires in July of this year.”
The release quoted the Deputy Governor as saying: “Mr. Romney is a well-grounded educator who I believe will bring his past and present knowledge and expertise to this position for the benefit of the children in Anguilla. Please support him in every way possible as he prepares to assume this new role.”
Mr. Romney served as a teacher at the Albena Lake-Hodge Comprehensive School prior to his transfer as Director of the Department of Youth and Culture.
The view of The Anguillian newspaper is that he is leaving an impressive legacy of youth development at that department for which he should be well congratulated. Over the years it has been one of the most active, respected and successful Government Departments in the Anguilla Public Service.
In his new role, as Chief Education Officer, Mr. Romney can only broaden his scope and expertise in helping to guide the teaching and learning process across the various public schools on the island.
