It's truly an honour to serve as the current Chair of Governors at our vibrant and wonderful Infants School and Nursery in Maidenbower. From joining as a Co-Opted governor in 2020 to now leading as Chair since 2021, my journey here has been enriching.

I'm a teacher at Oriel High School, where I fulfil multiple roles - from heading the Humanities Faculty to spearheading History and Ancient History as its Subject Leader. With over a decade in education and a passion for teaching, I'm proud to also be a member of the Chartered College of Teaching.

My ties with Maidenbower run deep; having taught students who later joined Oriel, I've fostered strong bonds with the local community. It's a privilege to work alongside the dedicated staff and Governing Body team at Maidenbower Infants as we continue to grow and excel. I am proud to be part of a community that always puts children first at the heart of its decisions, and in ensuring we fulfil our new mission with fidelity – “What happens early, matters for a lifetime”.
