Stamford School’s Alex Colley Named Finalist for Employee of the Year
We are proud to announce that our Assistant Head (Pastoral), Alex Colley, has been named a finalist for Employee of the Year at the Rutland & Stamford Mercury Business Awards 2025.
The Rutland & Stamford Mercury Business Awards celebrate excellence across the local business community, recognising individuals and organisations that make a significant impact in their fields. The Employee of the Year category highlights those who go above and beyond in their role, demonstrating outstanding dedication and commitment.
At Stamford, pastoral care is at the heart of our ethos. Alex’s leadership ensures that all our students are supported to thrive both academically and personally. Speaking about the recognition, she said:
“Our students leave Stamford as rounded and grounded young people, ready for life beyond education. The aim at Stamford is to unlock students’ potential to be the best version of themselves; for that to happen they need excellent pastoral provision.
The pastoral team at Stamford School have worked hard this year to develop a number of initiatives to support the progress of all students at the school. I am delighted that this work is being recognised and look forward to continuing to develop our work on anti-bullying, wellbeing and resilience in the coming year.”
This achievement reflects the strength of our pastoral provision and the commitment of our staff to supporting every student. We are delighted to see Alex’s contribution recognised in this way and look forward to the awards final later this year.
