I am delighted to be joining your board of governors and really excited at the prospect of watching this amazing body of super talent – that’s all of you – grow in numbers and take your futures in this life by storm.

I came to see the school as I am chair of governors at Three Bridges Primary School in Southall and had heard what a great opportunity Bolder was for our children. We are a two-form entry school and have just been given outstanding by OFSTED. What is so rewarding about being involved in schools is just how much you are always learning and I am always looking to see excellence in action.

Needless to say, I was so impressed with the school’s values, the pupils, staff and the curriculum offer, I was upfront and said that I would be interested in joining the Board. As it happened, my skills and experience matched what Bolder Governors had been looking for. I am really looking forward to working with you all and – thanks for letting me join in the journey.
