Sarah, who is looking forward to the new role, said: "I am thrilled to have been appointed as the new substantive headteacher of De Havilland Primary School, enabling me to continue leading the school on its journey of improvement.
"I will endeavour to ensure our children receive the very best education and opportunities to build happy and successful futures, along with a team of inspirational leaders, teachers and the support and expertise of Danes Educational Trust."
De Havilland school became part of the Danes Educational Trust, a trust comprising secondary schools and a primary school in Hertfordshire, in the autumn term 2020.
