  I have been the Local Authority Governor since 2017 and was very proud and excited to be asked to take on this role. I have a child at Little Stanion. I have seen the school mature and flourish from the beginning and I feel a strong, longstanding connection with Little Stanion Primary that will only intensify.

  As both a parent and local resident, I have a vested interest in the school excelling and making the most of its potential. As a financial adviser by profession, I am also well placed to be the Chair of the Finance Committee, holding to account the tight budget control of the school. I am enthusiastic to ensure every child has the best opportunities to be the best they can, inside and outside the classroom.

• Lewis Kirk
  Child Protection/Safeguarding Governor

  Living in Little Stanion and having two children who attend Little Stanion Primary School in Reception and Year One, it is a great opportunity to be able to serve as a parent Governor. I am new to the position and have much to learn, but with the support network available and my enthusiasm to make a difference, I hope to do just that.

• Sharon Toyer
  Inclusion and Equality Governor

  I am a recently retired Deputy Director of children's health services across Northamptonshire and am pleased to be able to bring my experience and perspective into the role of Community Governor at Little Stanion Primary.

  I am passionate about promoting children's wellbeing, including both emotional and physical wellbeing and ensuring that children feel safe and listened to.

  I am the proud Grandma of 6 wonderful grandchildren, 3 of whom attend the School. I look forward to seeing all children flourish at Little Stanion.

  I began my Little Stanion journey in 2015 and have loved every second of it. I am passionate about learning in the outdoors and the impact that an active curriculum can have on children's well being and attitude. I love taking our wonderful children to sports competitions and am always proud of their impeccable behaviour and enjoyment at representing our school!

  Stakeholder Governor

  I moved to Little Stanion at the end of 2014 and have been keen to support the community wherever I can. I work in the technology sector and am lucky to spend most of my time involved in development of technical solutions using cutting-edge capabilities. My goal is to support, encourage and challenge the school to develop the science, technology, engineering and maths skills needed by our next generation of technologists.
