Atherton St George's CE Primary School

I have thirty-five years experience working in various accounting roles and have been a governor for over sixteen years. I am delighted to be serving as part of the Board of Trustees for The Wings’ CE Trust and look forward to making valuable contributions to the schools in our Trust. I have two children and strongly believe every child should be nurtured to achieve everything of which they are capable….. and then a little bit more. In my spare time I enjoy visiting  the theatre, reading and puzzles.

I am Team Vicar in the Benefice of Atherton and Hindsford with Howe Bridge. My background prior to ordination in 2016 was in Primary Education and specifically in the areas of Special Education Needs and Inclusion. I have a passion for enabling children to achieve their potential in all aspects of life including academic and spirituality. I have been a governor at Atherton St George's since 2019.

I was appointed as a school governor in January 2019, this is my first role as a governor, and I have thoroughly enjoyed learning about this role and Atherton St Georges CE Primary School. My professional background is in Human Resources, and I have over 19 years’ experience. It was when I joined Wigan Council Schools HR team 7 years ago, I became interested in school governance, and I was pleased when I was appointed.

I have loved learning about all the brilliant work done by the teachers and all the staff in all our schools, especially through the pandemic over the last 18 months and I am privileged to part of such an amazing MAT. I am committed to learning as much as I can and supporting the school and children who attend.

In my spare time I love travelling and spending time with my family and friends.

I have worked in education for over twenty years, with experience of leading teams both locally and in the United States. Prior joining the governing body at St. George’s, I spent 4 years as  a teacher Governor at an 11-16 school in Wigan.

My strengths lie in curriculum, teaching and learning. More importantly, I value education and believe that every child should have access to the best.
