S Johnson - Co-opted Governor

I have grown up in the area and continue to live locally. I am passionate about our Federation having actually attended both the Infant and Junior Schools as a pupil. After qualifying, I worked in Walsall for 2 years before transferring into Staffordshire. Following working in another school in Staffordshire, I have worked at the Infant School for over 20 years, initially as a class teacher and now as the Head of the Infant School and also a Governor. I believe that everybody should live their dream. By working as part of a fantastic team, I want to provide the children of Chadsmoor with a wide variety of opportunities, giving them the best start possible to develop their skills and their aspiration to do whatever they want to do in their future

J Lones-Greaves - Co-opted Governor

I am now retired but was a teacher for over 30 years. I taught in Secondary schools but quickly rose through the ranks to become a Head of Year. A large part of that role was in primary liaison with our feeder Primary Schools, which I thoroughly enjoyed. It gave me an insight into the uniqueness of every Primary School I worked with and also helped when settling the new pupils into the routines of a Secondary School. As a Head of Year the pastoral side of the job has always been my favourite aspect, ensuring all students in my care enjoyed a successful and fulfilling time at school. 

I am thrilled to have been given this opportunity to help support the next generation at Chadsmoor Federation Schools in their education. All children should be encouraged to become valued members of the school and eventually our society as a whole. 

I'm looking forward to working with the rest of the Governors and School Leadership Team to ensure the continued success and development of the Federation.
