Daniel Braithwaite of Lancaster And Morecambe College

Lancaster & Morecambe College (LMC) has appointed Daniel Braithwaite as principal and chief executive.

Danny joins LMC from Lakes College, where he was assistant principal. He replaces Wes Johnson, who has become the new principal and chief executive of Myerscough College.

Danny said: "After a fabulous 20 years at the Lakes College, I am extremely excited to be joining Lancaster & Morecambe College. 

"The college has a fantastic future and is placed front and centre to meet the skills development agenda locally and regionally. There are a number of ambitious projects underway, which will transform the economy of the area.

"I am very proud to be leading the College during this period of opportunity and look forward to connecting with employers and the community the College serves, and to build on the good work to date."

Lindsay Price, chair of the corporation, said: "Governors and staff are delighted to welcome Danny Braithwaite to LMC, and look forward to him building on the fantastic work undertaken by Wes Johnson.

"Danny will ensure that the college maximises current and future opportunities for students, staff, businesses and wider stakeholders by continuing to place LMC at the heart of the communities it serves, whilst still remaining an accessible and inclusive college providing education for all."
