“He is extremely focused on growing our school and its associated community and we look forward to working together in propelling King Solomon to new and far-reaching heights.”
He will take over from Dr Paul Doherty, acting head of King Solomon for the past year, who will return to his full-time role at Trinity Catholic High School.
Mr Slater, 45, said that King Solomon had “the potential to become an outstanding educational institution and I will endeavour to make it the school the entire community wants - the governing body and I share a vision for the future success of the school.
“I have had the opportunity to work in a number of amazing schools and outstanding educators in my career, both within and outside the Jewish community. I see this role as the pinnacle of my educational career.”
