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
Governor
I joined the governing board in March of 2025. I have been a north Leeds resident for the majority of my life and lived in Chapel Allerton since 2021. I have two daughters, one of whom is a pupil at the school with the other set to join in September 2025. For the past fifteen years I have worked in the financial services sector, both as a consultant and in a range of permanent roles, with a specific focus on risk management and governance. Currently I work for a policy bank focused on providing capital in order to help tackle climate change and help deliver regional and local economic growth.
