  • 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

    Marcus Bowell

    Governor

    I am a parent governor and have two children at Chapel Allerton Primary. It’s been a privilege to watch them grow and thrive at the school. I hope to help the school bring the same positive experience to even more local children.

    I live locally and am invested, not just in the school, but in the wider Chapel Allerton community.

    I work in communications for a neighbouring council and hope I can bring some of my professional skills to help the school listen to children, parents and guardians and respond to them in the most positive ways possible. In my day-to-day work, I also have experience of working with some of the issues the school faces, whether that’s finance, safeguarding or a range of other things governors can be involved in.

    I am especially interested in how the school can build on its inclusive approach. I would like to play my part in making sure every child gets the chance to grow and thrive at the same time as fulfilling their academic potential.
