I have known Lorraine Gillespie for ten years and she has worked at the highest level in educational leadership in Ireland. As a colleague she worked in national leadership roles with in teacher professional development support services and with me in the PDST under the Department of Education and Skills. She is one of the finest thinkers I have encountered in my 40 years in education. Her ability to listen, take in information, ask the relevant questions, synthesize and present a number of insights is extremely powerful. Her strategic thinking and leadership qualities are renowned in education at all levels in Ireland. Lorraine is most caring and a person of the highest integrity, I highly commend her as a leader in education roll. Oaddy Keays, National Director, PDST (Retired)

During my time working with Lorraine I found her to be a very thorough leader with an excellent work ethic. She is an outstanding team player, very approachable, well respected and liked by everyone. I learned many skills from Lorraine and was privileged to have worked with her.
