New headteacher, Mr Tim Marston

E-ACT Willenhall Academy, on Furzbank Way, Willenhall, officially welcomed the new head Tim Marston this month.

The announcement comes following the school's latest Ofsted inspection in December, which saw it handed another 'requires improvement' rating; its third rating below 'good' since opening in 2012.

Mr Marston unofficially started at the school in December – a month earlier than planned.
