Cathie Paine is the Chief Executive Officer of REAch2 Academy Trust. 

As CEO of REAch2, Cathie’s vision is the belief that school leadership at its heart is about transforming lives. Cathie joined REAch2 at the end of 2012 when there were only four schools in the Trust, but her headship career spanned 15 years across schools in a variety of challenging circumstances.

Ever since Catherine's first headship taking a socially deprived school from 'special measures' to  'Good' in just four terms, Cathie's passion is clear. She's committed to enabling children to flourish in an environment of outstanding practice.
