Relevant business and pecuniary interests: None

I have two children who attend St Mary’s. They have benefited from wonderful teaching as well as the opportunity to enjoy creative and sporting activities beyond the core curriculum.

Ensuring all children can benefit from a great education which sets them up for life is a key passion of mine. I have myself benefited from my school education, being supported to overcome the challenges of dyslexia and going on to achieve a History PhD from King’s College, London. I have worked at the Department for Education for over 10 years.

As a governor, I hope to ensure that St Mary’s is an inclusive, happy environment where all children are able to obtain the academic skills and confidence to thrive at secondary school and beyond.
