Deputy Jeremy Macon has been appointed as Jersey s next education minister.
Deputy Macon will replace Senator Tracey Vallois who resigned in January after claiming her concerns about the reopening of schools in the island had been dismissed.
He will retain his position as the minister for children as part of his new role.
Deputy Russell Labey will fill Mr Macon s previous appointment as housing minister.
Both members were nominated by chief minister John Le Fondre and were not challenged for the positions.
Under his new title as the minister for children and education, Deputy Macon said he planned to introduce more internships and apprenticeships in a bid to improve employability among young people.
