Our Governing Body

The purpose of governance is to provide confident, strategic leadership and to create robust accountability, oversight and assurance of educational and financial performance.

Therefore, our role as governors is to :-
  • ensure clarity of vision, ethos and strategic direction;

  • hold leaders to account for the educational performance of the organisation and its pupils, and the performance management of staff;

  • oversee the financial performance of the organisation and make sure its money is well spent.

You can contact the governors via the school office. Please email office@queensdrive.peterborough .sch.uk

I joined the Governing Body in September 2024, having been connected with the school for the past eight years. With 28 years of experience in education, I bring a strong understanding of the sector, and I am committed to supporting the school’s continued success. Outside of work, I enjoy travelling with my family. Over the past year, I have greatly valued the opportunity to deepen my knowledge of the school, and I look forward to working closely with Sarah and the team in the year ahead.
