Dr Vicky Booth
My daughter is in year 2. I love Bowerham’s emphasis on learning through play and being outside in Reception and Key Stage 1, and also how nurturing staff are. In my role as an Educational Psychologist (in a different L.A.) I love working with children, families, staff and senior leaders to help children to make progress and flourish. Promoting emotional wellbeing on a systematic level is a key part of my job, and if I become a parent governor, I could draw upon this as well as my approach to listening, connecting and working collaboratively.
Miss Katy Brearley
I have 2 daughters who attend Bowerham, my eldest is in Year 6 and youngest is in Reception. As a working mum, I understand the pressures many of us face daily. In my role as a team leader, I handle challenging situations with care and empathy, skills I believe are valuable as a school governor. Aditionally, one of my daughters is neurodivergant, which fuels my passion for creating a nurturing, inclusive environment where all children can thrive, no matter the challenges they face. I’m commited to supporting the school in providing a safe, welcoming space for every pupil to succeed.
Mrs Rachel Mounsey
I am a proud parent of 2 boys, 1 who has just gone to high school. I am very passionate about Bowerham School and the great teaching and experiences offered to our children. I am also heavily invested in ensuring there are strong SEN provisions. My role as a Governance Manager means I am adept at understanding regulations and applying these practically.
GOVERNOR INFORMATION
On this page you can find details of the Governors of our school. Governors are there to ensure that the staff are carrying out their duties properly. They meet for a full governors meeting once each term and there are two main committees – Community and Curriculum and Resources, which also meet each term. These meetings are either face to face or via Zoom. All governors serve a 4 year term of office following their election.
