Our Governors

Our School Governors
 
The Governors at Wallsend Jubilee play a very important role in the daily life of our school.   Governors at our school are all volunteers who help run our school.  Most schools, including Wallsend Jubilee, run with a group of school governors  - together they are called the 'governing body'.  They're involved in decisions about all aspects  of managing the school - such as running buildings and budgets, supporting staff and setting standards across the school.  Governors also help make big decisions  about the school's long term goals.  They support the headteacher, but also ask questions and challenge the headteacher about the direction of the school's aims and ambitions moving into the future.
 
At Wallsend Jubilee, we have a strong active governing body who come from a variety of walks of life.  Not all of our governors are parents but they all have an enthusiasm, commitment and an interest in the education of all of the children at Wallsend Jubilee Primary School.

  • Mr Shaun Rutherford

    Parent governor/behaviour for learning, safeguarding and child protection

    I was appointed as a Parent Governor at Wallsend Jubilee Primary School in March 2022.

    I have worked within the public sector for over 12 years, carrying out various roles and responsibilities that involve working closely with the community. I have regular contact with those who are vulnerable and may require support from appropriate safeguarding measures.

    My daughter is currently in year 5 and I have always taken a vested interest in her education. By both working and living in the local area, I feel I have a good grasp of current affairs and understand the priorities and values of our community. Therefore I will endeavour to assist the school in making sound, well-calculated and justifiable decisions for our children.
