Graham Kinrade takes on role for six months
The education minister has backed his new chief officer to drive a culture change within the department.
Graham Kinrade has been appointed to the role for six months, after his predecessor professor Ronald Barr left last week.
It's after an independent report criticised the department's failing relationship with schools, which it says resulted in the ongoing industrial dispute over pay.
Dr Allinson says it's not just his new chief officer who'll help drive the reforms required:
Mountain Road to stay closed overnight
Horse Tramway business case 'under final review'
BMA finds less than a quarter of doctors recommend working at Manx Care
Thirteen people entered or tried to enter the Island without immigration permission since January 2025
Abuse towards bus drivers 'will not be tolerated'
