It is a return to her roots for Caroline Bedford, who was born and raised in the Newport area.
She will officially take over at the start of the new term in September – but will be meeting parents at an information event at the school on the evening of Wednesday, June 5.
Burton Borough is one of five secondary schools in Telford & Wrekin which are run by the Learning Community Trust.
