Mrs Katy Wardell
Role: Staff Governor
Business Interests: None
As a second year ECT teacher, I have spent the last five years developing my skills and knowledge as an educational practitioner. I am passionate about the development of primary education and I am committed to the continuous improvement and development of educational provision. I am able to consider topics critically and reflectively and I have the ability to be diplomatic when contributing to discussions while respecting the views of others. I have built strong relationships within the school community and believe that my position in the classroom and as a fresh pair of eyes in education make me a strong candidate for governor.
