  • Meet the Governors

    Welcome to our Governors’ section

    Hello and welcome to the Governor’s page.

    My name is Jenny Hand and I am the Chair of Governors as well as a parent governor. As the Governing Body of Chapel Allerton Primary School we are a small group of volunteers who work closely with the leadership team to set the vision for our school and to provide appropriate support and challenge to ensure the school continually improves. We meet regularly as a whole Board and in small sub committees as well as make visits to school to hear directly from the children.

    Please find below the details of how our Governing body is structured, including our names, categories, responsibilities and terms of appointment for each Governor. If you would like to get in touch with us or are interested in becoming a Governor then please contact our School Business manager at SBM@chapelallertonprimary.co.uk

    Jenny Hand

    Chair of Governors

    Jenny Hand is our current serving Chair of the Governing body

    I joined the main board in September 2023. I’ve lived in Chapel Allerton almost all my life and attended the school when I was little. My daughter is a current pupil, I have many friends with children in the school and my mum was a primary teacher before retirement. By day, I am a Chief of Staff and Company Secretary for a small software company in the pharmaceutical sector, but my main passion lies with people, how they learn and develop (especially in the early years) and what makes people tick. I can see how fundamental the building blocks of education are for success in life and really hope my experience in the private sector can help enable the team at Chapel Allerton to be successful.
