I have worked in education all my working life and have a wealth of experiences, including being an assistant headteacher in a catholic secondary school and an education officer in Dudley Education Authority.

My association with our school has been long and enjoyable. I have been a parent, our two children had a very happy and successful education at OLSK and my wife taught reception class for many years.

I feel privileged now to be a governor and will work to ensure that the young people who come to our school experience opportunities to ensure that they flourish and develop to the best of their ability.
