I am the local authority appointed governor for Manor Park Primary school. I have a daughter at Manor Park with another daughter having previously attended the school.

I have worked in the education sector for twenty-two years having been a teacher, head teacher, school improvement advisor and CEO within this time. My areas of interest within governors are leadership, early years, and networking with other schools. As part of my governance role I am also the vice chair of governors. It is our job as part of the governors to ensure that all children have the absolute best education possible and ensure that the strategy and finances are running smoothly. We are also there to ensure that the staff and leadership team are well supported and have the tools needed to make Manor Park an outstanding school for the children.
