Katie Conn

Parent Governor

I have lived in and around St Budeaux for most of my life. I always had fond memories of growing up in the area as a child and am keen to contribute to other children enjoying the same experience. So, when the opportunity to become a member of the governing body arose, I absolutely knew I wanted to be part of the board and part of Marine Academy’s future. I have enjoyed my role so far and look forward to continuing to help our school and children thrive. I have a daughter that has recently joined the school in September, and I am looking forward to continuing to contribute to and build upon the great work that has already taken place.

Nicky Henderson

Vice Chair of Governors

Nicky is the Link Governor for Careers

 

I am the Operations Manager for the Devon, Plymouth and Torbay Careers Hub where we link the world of work with the world of education. I am passionate about helping young people to be the best they can be and to reach for the stars – however near or far that might be. I have lived in many places across the UK and Europe as a child but moved to Plymouth over 30 years ago and have never left. I love walking my dog Spike and pottering around in my garden.

Pat Patel

Co-opted Governor

Pat is the Link Governor for Safeguarding & Attendance

 

After a career spanning 25 years in the Royal Navy I began my live as a civilian in Barne Barton becoming a community activist, I have overseen many changes and improvements to the area which was once known as “little Beirut”. I have raised funds which has enabled my community to acquire four large buildings which help to sustain community activities on the estate.

I was elected as a councillor for St Budeaux Ward in 1921 being given cabinet responsibilities for Customer Service, Culture, Leisure and Sport. I have much knowledge and experience to support the school, the staff, parents and children.
