Guvernare
Jolly Pett, Chair of Governors
Sally Simpson, Headteacher
Avem o echipă de voluntari foarte dedicați și calificați, care servesc ca guvernanți ai școlii și își concentrează eforturile asupra a ceea ce contează cu adevărat - îmbunătățirea educației și a rezultatelor elevilor pentru fiecare copil.
(...)
Guvernanții provoacă și susțin directorul executiv, șeful școlii și alți lideri superiori ca factori cheie de decizie strategică și stabilitori de viziune pentru școală. Toate problemele operaționale de zi cu zi sunt responsabilitatea șefului școlii și a personalului.
Guvernatorii joacă un rol vital în:
(...)
creșterea performanței școlii și a elevilor;
asigurarea utilizării adecvate a resurselor pentru a oferi fiecărui copil cea mai bună educație posibilă;
asigurarea îndeplinirii obligațiilor legale;
responsabilizarea conducătorilor școlari pentru îmbunătățirea performanței școlare.

My favourite way to spend the day is enjoying time with my grandchildren. We love cooking together and our speciality

My hope for Parkland is that the school continues to be aspirational for all children and that it builds on the values of positivity, resilience, honesty, and co-operation.

Role:
Health and Safety Governor

A day spent in the garden (in the sun!) is my favourite way to spend a free day. There is nothing nicer than pottering,
listening to the birds and feeling the sun on one's back.
What do you bring to Parkland?
I have been in education for many years and I have a large amount of experience and understanding of primary aged children, which I hope allows me to be a useful critical friend of the school.
Why did you become a governor?
Following retirement I felt that I still had a lot to offer a school and wished to continue to help enable children to achieve the best that they can.
What are your hopes for Parkland?
Having been at the school for a number of years now, I have seen the schools grow and flourish into inspiring and highly motivating environments. I have seen outstanding pastoral care for pupils and families and know that the wrap-around provision that continues to evolve in the schools will continue to grow. I hope that all children will realise the best outcomes that they can.
