Kelly Fountain appointed Chief Executive Officer of Gower College Swansea

Kelly, who has served as the college’s Principal since January 2024, will transition into her new role following the retirement of current CEO Mark Jones MBE, this summer.  

The appointment comes as the College prepares to bid a fond farewell to Mark Jones, MBE, whose dedicated service as CEO has ensured the College’s success and strategic direction over the last 12 years.  

The college says Kelly brings over 20 years of experience in the further education sector across both England and Wales. Prior to joining Gower College Swansea, she held the role of Vice Principal for Academic Services at NPTC Group of Colleges and has an extensive background in strategic leadership, quality improvement and cross-college development.

It adds that during her time at the college, Kelly has made a significant and positive impact and has overseen the development of the new college’s strategic plan including launching the new college vision, mission and values.

In her new position, Kelly will take on overall responsibility for driving forward the College’s strategic vision, representing the College externally working closely with governors and stakeholders to ensure the continued delivery of high-quality education and training across the region and beyond. Kelly will also oversee the implementation of the College’s ambitious estates strategy, digital transformation and continue to develop a strong and inclusive organisational culture.  

On behalf of the Governors, Ian Price, Chair of the College Governing Body, said: “We would like to congratulate Kelly on her appointment as the new CEO of Gower College Swansea. I am grateful to all those involved in the appointment process and am really looking forward to working closely with Kelly over the coming year and we look forward to the continued positive impact that she will make.”

Speaking about her appointment, Kelly Fountain said: “I am deeply honoured and privileged to be appointed as Chief Executive Officer of this exceptional College. Having begun my own educational journey here as a student in 1995, I have experienced first-hand the transformational impact that the staff at this College had on my own personal journey – and our staff continue to be outstanding today, consistently pushing boundaries and inspiring excellence.

“I look forward to building upon Mark’s exceptional legacy over the last 12 years and working alongside our Corporation Board to build upon our many successful achievements, deepening connections in our business sectors and communities, and working closely with staff, governors and partners.

“This is truly an exciting chapter for our College – with our newly established strategic plan, ambitious estates strategy, and numerous opportunities for growth. I am committed to expanding our reach and impact, collaborating with our key stakeholders and ensuring we continue to deliver an outstanding learning experience for our learners, communities, and employer partners.”

Ospreys coach Booth leaves region

Mark Jones will take charge of first-team affairs for Saturday’s encounter.

The former London Irish boss spent four-and-a-half seasons with the Ospreys, reaching the URC play-offs last season where they crashed out in the quarter-finals to Munster.

Ospreys announced in September Booth would be leaving at the end of the 2024-25 season with defence coach Jones promoted to the top job.

The Welsh side, led by chief executive Lance Bradley, championed their succession planning with Booth in charge for a season before his departure but the change has now been made six months earlier than anticipated.

Ospreys have only managed three wins in nine matches this season and have slipped to 14th in the URC table, while Booth’s side suffered a record European 59-15 defeat in the Challenge Cup away against Montpellier last Saturday.

After hosting Scarlets, Ospreys travel to play Cardiff on New Year’s Day with further European fixtures against Newcastle and Pau in January.

Ospreys flanker Justin Tipuric is likely to continue playing this season before retiring and taking over as defence coach for the 2025-26 season.

An Ospreys statement read:

“Ospreys Rugby can confirm Toby Booth has departed from his role as head coach with immediate effect.

“Toby joined the Ospreys as head coach in 2020. During his tenure, he led the team to significant achievements, including winning the URC Welsh Shield in both the 2021-22 and 2023-24 seasons. He also guided the Ospreys to the EPCR Challenge Cup quarter-finals and the URC play-offs in the 2023-24 season.

“Ospreys would like to thank Toby for his commitment and contributions to the club during his time in charge and wish him all the best in his future endeavours.

“Mark Jones will assume the role of head coach with immediate effect, supported by the current coaching staff and management.”

Good interview on the #DavidMcWilliams #podcast last week featuring historian #MarkJones on his new book about the 1923 Putsch

#History is certainly rhyming at the moment and while it does not exactly repeat, it is certainly instructive for the current moment we are living through

Why 1923 still Matters — The David McWilliams Podcast

Anti-semitism, inflation, threats to democracy, despotic leaders and fragile governments, if you thought it was today, its is - but hold on. It’s happened before… This very month 100 years ago, German hyperinflation peaked, Adolf Hitler announced himself with a putsch and anti-semitism was rife. History is repeating itself, or is it? Join us on this epic journey back in time to see what we can learn and whether we can apply any historical remedies to today’s global problems.
