Personal Statement
I have now retired from a career in education. My final post was as head of a primary school much the same size as St Joseph’s. It is a great privilege to be a Foundation Governor of this lovely school. I hope that my past experience will enable me to support the head and staff to continue to develop its collegiate and spiritual ethos. I have always been keen to see children fully develop their potential. This can take many paths but we must never forget the importance of academic achievement in enabling them to participate in the modern world. I have always had a particular interest in the teaching of reading without which children cannot make good progress across all subjects. It has, therefore, been a great pleasure to be able to volunteer to read with children in the school.
