I have lived in Marston St Lawrence and Greatworth for the last 25 years and I have been a Parent
Governor since November 2015. I currently have a son in Year 4 and a daughter in Year 6 and an
older daughter who is now in Year 8 at Stratford Girls Grammar School. Professionally I have a commercial and business development background and work for a large
Environmental Services business in the water sector.
I am currently Chair of Governors and also sit
on the Finance and Premises Committee where hopefully my commercial knowledge can support
and add value to the school.
Previously a Chair of Governors and Chair of Finance Committee at Surrey Infant School. Worked 19 years in a Retail Banking environment before setting up my own franchise business. Recently retired.
I joined the Governing Body in January 2017. I have worked in Early Years Education for 14 years and currently run my own baby and toddler group as well as working part time as a Higher Level Teaching Assistant in a local school. As my knowledge and background is within the Early Years curriculum I sit on the Quality and Standards sub committee and have the responsibility of EYFS, maths and safeguarding.I very much enjoy being a part of the governors at Greatworth as we have a great team and the school is a very happy place to be.
I have lived in the village for over 40 years and am a retired teacher who has had many years of
experience teaching a wide range of subjects and age ranges. My main subject is Technology and as
a department leader I have had responsibility for planning and managing the curriculum and annual

My own children and now my grandchildren attended Greatworth School and hoping to get
involved and give back something to the community, I have a trained and served as governor since
January 2017, with particular involvement in the Finance & Premises committee.
I have been part of Greatworth community all of my life, having lived on the farm at Greatworth Hall and attended Greatworth Primary School as a child. I trained to be a teacher and graduated in 2013, I have gained a lot of work experience through Greatworth school since the age of about 15 and throughout my teaching degree. Having taught in Key Stage 2 for three years I turned my attention to learning outside and now run Greatworth Hall Farm Education Centre on our family farm, just outside the village. I have been trained to level three in Forest Schools and have a BA(Hons) in education with qualified teacher status. I am passionate about education and keen to be involved in continuing high standards of learning in the school.
