The General Synod Board of Education is delighted to announce the appointment of Dr Peter Hamill as the new Secretary to the Board of Education NI. Peter is a qualified teacher and vocational trainer with a PhD in the field of education. He has worked in the area of training and development for a number of organisations over the years, including the Diocese of Connor and, more recently, the Northern Ireland Council for Voluntary Action.
