At the heart of STC Higher Education’s continued growth and success is strong, consistent leadership – something Ana Pace Bonello has exemplified over the past decade.

Celebrating 10 years at STC Higher Education, Ana has played a pivotal role in shaping the institution into what it is today: a respected academic hub recognised for quality, innovation and student-centred learning.

As the Head of Institution, her vision has driven the expansion of programmes, strengthened international partnerships, and upheld the high academic standards that define STC Higher Education.

Under her leadership, STC has reinforced its reputation for delivering UK qualifications in Malta, ensuring students gain globally-recognised awards within a supportive local environment.

Beyond academic structures, Ana has helped cultivate a culture where students feel guided, challenged and empowered throughout their journey.

As STC Higher Education approaches its 30th anniversary, the milestone reflects a legacy of academic excellence, resilience and continuous growth for both international and local students.

Ana has been closely involved in this journey, working alongside local and international stakeholders and contributing to the institution’s ongoing evolution within an ever-changing education landscape.

This milestone is more than a celebration of time; it is a celebration of impact.

Ana’s dedication, leadership, and passion for education continue to shape the experience of every student who walks through STC’s campus, while setting the tone for the next stage of their careers.
