KIS HEAD OF SCHOOL SALLY HOLLOWAY ELECTED TO INTERNATIONAL BACCALAUREATE BOARD

Mrs. Sally Holloway, founding Head of KIS International School, has again been recognized for her wealth of knowledge and professional experience by the IB Heads Council. The Heads Council, made up of 12 elected representatives from the three global IB hubs, recently elected Sally to Chair the Heads Council, a position which carries with it a place on the IB Board. Sally’s new role will see her communicating internationally with IB School Heads, and growing familiar with the schools in each global hub. “I am extremely honoured to be elected as Chair” commented Sally, “and I am absolutely thrilled that this appointment will enable me to be part of the decision making processes behind the scenes, that ultimately lead to continuously improvements in all IB programmes globally.”

The IB Board is a professional body which governs the IB globally and relies upon the input from the Chair of the Heads Council to represent the opinions and concerns of IB School Heads. In addition to these responsibilities, Sally will also serve on the Education and Finance Sub-Committees. Sally will hold the position until the end of 2010 and will then be eligible for re-election, if she so chooses.
