School Governors
Interim Headteacher
Mr Ryan Lewis
PARENT GOVERNORS
Mr J Scott (Vice Chair)
I am a local resident and have a child currently at Upton Primary School. I am a subject leader in a secondary school in Leeds, with responsibility for leading Religious Studies and Business, and have previously held responsibility for Citizenship and Personal, Social and Health Education. I also currently teach across the Humanities subjects. I have worked in education for over ten years, and prior to this, I worked in different areas of the legal profession after completing my degree.
I wanted to become a Governor at Upton as I have a real interest in wanting to make sure that the children of the local community receive the best start that they can. The school is very much the heart of our community and it is a real honour to be able to work with staff to ensure that the school our children have access to, provides high quality learning and opportunities to acquire knowledge about the world we live in.
Mrs L Skelding
I am delighted to be part of the governing body at Upton Primary School. I am a Primary School teacher with 8 years experience, working extensively in the Early Years. I am passionate about education and I strive to improve standards across all areas of school.
As a Governor, I aim to take an active role in the school's development planning in order to support and challenge the senior leadership team at Upton. I look forward to working with children, staff and parents in the future.
CO-OPTED GOVERNORS
Mrs B Graham
I have been a governor at Upton Primary School for many years. I live locally so understand the catchment area. During this time I have been Vice Chairman of the Governing Body and currently Chair of the Resources Committee. I have been retired for 17 years having worked at Minsthorpe High School as a Laboratory Technician in the Science Dept for 27 years. I am involved with a lot of other voluntary bodies locally but really enjoy the time I give to Upton Primary School particularly the time always spent in school.
