Leeming and Londonderry Community Primary School

Governance

Sue Richardson

I was invited by the Local Authority to become Chair of Governors at Aiskew, Leeming Bar Primary School in March 2019 and have been a member of the Development Group planning for the federation of the school with Synergy.

I am very optimistic about this move, believing that the school can retain its strong ethos as a family school whilst benefiting from the support and stimulation of other schools in the Federation.

My background is in Education having been a Secondary School teacher and senior leader for over thirty years and my last post was CEO of a multi-academy trust which comprised five Primary schools, one mainstream Secondary and an all-age Special school.

Now retired, I’m fortunate enough to have the time to spend travelling, reading, walking in our lovely countryside and various keep fit classes.

About Synergy Schools

Synergy Schools is a federation of primary schools in the north of North Yorkshire. The federation was formed in September 2018 when Brompton-on-Swale and Crakehall Church of England Primary Schools successfully shared senior leadership capacity.
