Governors

I am currently Staff Governor here at St Bede’s. I have been a member of staff since September 2007 and have been fortunate to teach in Years 2,4,5 and 6. My position within the school is Year 6 teacher, head of upper key stage 2 and Assistant Head teacher. I was very fortunate to see my own three children educated in our amazing school and also to be a pupil here myself – many years ago.

I am extremely proud of our school, we have the most incredible children, a strong and supportive staff and a very dedicated Leadership team – which I am proud to be a part of. I endeavor to provide support as a staff governor to our Governing body to ensure that our children grow in their faith, remain happy, safe and achieve the very best that they can whilst here at St Bede’s.

I am a Foundation Governor appointed in November 2018. I have two children, one at St. Bedes and another at New City College Redbridge.     I have a keen interest in education developed largely due to my son having special educational needs and me having to manoeuvre my way around the system to ensure that he received the best possible education. I am presently employed part time at a local primary school.

My management experience across a number of sectors has helped develop and enhance my skills. The skills I bring to the Governing Body include ability to take an objective approach, strong problem solving and observational skills, excellent communication skills, and ability to work under pressure. I have a passion for property development and interior design and plan to develop this more in the future.

I joined St.Bede’s as a Foundation Governor in January 2020. I have been a member of St.Bede’s Parish community since 2012. My two boys are currently attending St.Bede’s Primary School. I have been working in the NHS Healthcare Sector for the past 16 years. I have a post graduate certification in Education (Medical).

My role is to help and support the leaders of the school in making decisions based on Catholic faith and to preserve and develop the Catholic character of the school. I would be aiming to support the policies and procedures that ensure that our school functions efficiently in the changing and challenging times and also bring out the very best in the staff and our children.

I am married with two children, one at St Bede’s, the other at Campion HS Hornchurch. As a school governor I want to promote the school’s Catholic beliefs, whilst contributing to the school’s high standards and educational achievements. I have 30 years policing experience where I managed specialised safeguarding units gaining valuable skills and knowledge of multi-agency working.

I enjoy all types of sporting activities especially cycling.  I am passionate about the education and welfare of all children and believe that they should be provided with the necessary support to reach their full potential.

I am married with 4 beautiful children.  I was educated in catholic schools in Ghana, (Pope John secondary school in Koforidua, Ghana). I am privileged to be appointed as foundation governor at St Bede’s Primary school in Redbridge.  My twin girls are in year 3 in this school. My elder son completed his primary education in the school in 2020 and now in year 9 at Ilford County High school. My second son just completed year 6 at St Bede’s Primary in 2022 and now in Trinity Catholic High School in South Woodford. I and my spouse are very active and passionate about our children education as parents. I believe supporting the school and teachers in making important decisions and implementing those decisions will help all the children to achieve
the best outcome in their primary education. 

As a foundation Governor, I will be working with fellow governors, as well as staff to continue to create the space where children develop a love of learning and appreciation of our Catholic faith. As senior practitioner in social work, working in children services for the past 12 years, I understand the importance of children learning in a safe environment, to thrive and harness their full potential.  I am very impressed by the high standards of education, strong Catholic ethos that St Bede exemplifies as well as the outstanding care shown to all the children who have made St Bede their school. 

As a catholic and strong believer of our ethos and faith, I want to support the continuing success of St Bede’s Primary School and its pupils in the spirit of catholic ethos. I am motivated individual who strives for excellence in everything I do and ensure that work is to high standard, new challenges with enthusiasm.   I look forward in working with the school, educational team and governors to achieve the best outcomes for our children.
