A new principal has been appointed at Rochdale Sixth Form College (RSFC).

Richard Ronksley is an experienced leader, manager, and teacher with a track-record in senior roles in colleges.

More recently he worked for Ofsted as one of Her Majesty’s Inspectors for Further Education and Skills, giving him an insight into the workings of Ofsted and good practice in a wide range of colleges.

Mr Ronksley said: “I am thrilled and honoured to have started as principal. Rochdale Sixth Form College is an exceptional college with an exceptional mission.

"It is both a flagship for what sixth form colleges should be, and for what they can do; providing an excellent education for students from diverse backgrounds so that they meet their potential, and fulfil their promise.

"It is my pledge that as principal I will cherish and build on everything that makes RSFC so special, so the college can be the very best it can be."
