I have been teaching for 29 Years and have been lucky enough to work in several different counties, in all year groups, in a range of size and types of school.

When I moved back to the locality with my family, I took up the post of Headteacher at ³Ô¹ÏÍ·Ìõ in January 2020, which is my second Headship. I have been part of school Senior Leadership Teams for over 16 years and have served on 4 different Governing Boards.

Hello, my name is Karen Piper and I am the newly appointed Co-opted Governor. Many parents and children will know me as the previous Deputy Headteacher and SENCo of ³Ô¹ÏÍ·Ìõ School. I took early retirement in 2023 but have kept firm ties with the school through supply teaching and voluntary work. My SLT experience from ³Ô¹ÏÍ·Ìõ and elsewhere together with my awareness of day to day teaching and curriculum issues means I am well placed to assist the Head Teacher, staff and governing body with the strategic development and direction of the school and the challenges it faces. I have had experience of being a staff governor and parent governor previously and always enjoyed being part of helping and supporting children to achieve their very best.

Hello everyone, I am Paul. I joined the Army at 16 and served for 14 years in the Royal Corps of Signals. Since leaving the service I have been working in industry in the Defence sector. I have a lot of experience in leading diverse teams to deliver quality products against challenging timescales using tightly controlled budgets of public money. I was inspired to volunteer in the community and as I firmly believe a good education is essential to enable our young people to reach their full potential. I felt bringing my skills as a governor to help the wonderful team at ³Ô¹ÏÍ·Ìõ Primary to support them in providing the best possible education for the children is a worthwhile cause. I look forward to working with the staff and the parents to ensure ³Ô¹ÏÍ·Ìõ Primary continues to live up to its high educational standards and aspirations.

Hello everyone, I'm Cheryl Oakman and a resident of ³Ô¹ÏÍ·Ìõ since 2017. I have a son who attends ³Ô¹ÏÍ·Ìõ and we love the nurturing, inclusive environment of this wonderful school. I am a Civil Servant with experience of working in several central government departments and most recently being close to delivery of education policy. This included leading one of the former government Opportunity Areas, where it was a huge privilege to work with amazing education settings and leaders across Fenland and East Cambridgeshire. I firmly believe every child can, and should, go as far as their imagination allows and I look forward to working with all of the brilliant staff, governors and parents of ³Ô¹ÏÍ·Ìõ to help make that happen.

Rebekah serves as a Co-opted Governor at ³Ô¹ÏÍ·Ìõ, where her work is guided by a strong commitment to ensuring that every pupil has the opportunity to thrive and achieve their best. Drawing on her professional background in the accountancy sector, Rebekah supports the school in managing its resources effectively so that they directly benefit pupils’ learning experiences and well-being.

As a former pupil and now a parent of two children at the school, Rebekah has a personal connection which gives her a deep understanding of the school’s values and the positive impact it has on pupils’ lives.

Through her role on the Governing Body, Rebekah is dedicated to helping maintain a nurturing, inclusive environment where every child feels valued, inspired, and supported to reach their full potential.

I have been a school governor at various schools, both as a staff governor and headteacher, for many years. I have also been a deputy and headteacher of schools in Cambridgeshire for 30 years (Alconbury / ³Ô¹ÏÍ·Ìõ / Wisbech / Christchurch).

I am currently working as a cycle instructor for ‘Bikeablility’ and have the opportunity to visit a large number of schools in Cambridgeshire, Lincolnshire and Northamptonshire.

I have been teaching for many years across both Key Stages as well as being on the Senior Leadership Team in my previous schools. I started as Deputy Headteacher at ³Ô¹ÏÍ·Ìõ in September 2023 and look forward to continuing to support the school and the community as a staff governor.
