I live in Chapel Allerton and my son joined CAPS in F2 in September 2015 and I am delighted to be able to make a contribution to the school that he has thoroughly enjoyed and thrived in. 

I started Chairing the Governing Board in September 2020 having been a Parent Governor since March 2017. I currently sit on all of the Committees and take responsibility for the SEND provision in the school. I have attended a lot of training, been part of the governing panel that met Ofsted at the last inspection & supported the Managing Staff Reductions process. I have seen many changes in my short time as a Governor and I relish the opportunity that we have to help the school be the best that it can be for the wide diversity of children that we have in the school community. We have a brilliant leadership and staff team who we, as Governors support and challenge. The last twelve months has been unique given the restrictions of the pandemic but exciting too as we have worked with stakeholders to shape the school development plan for the next four years. 

I trained as a Primary School teacher and in my early career combined working as a professional  actor with supply teaching. I now work full time for the Arts Council England and have worked in the Arts & Heritage sector for 25 years.  I am a keen advocate for the arts and creativity in education.
