Adele Thorley – Co Opted Governor

Vice Chair

Chair of the Teaching & Learning Committee

Governor responsible for SEND

I became a governor at Newton Primary 6 years ago when my 2 children attended the school.  My main aim was to ensure that every child gets the best possible education and opportunities.   I have enjoyed seeing the impact of how decisions we make are improving the children’s experiences.

I have been working as a primary school teacher for 25 years, with experience teaching across all the different year groups.  This provides me with an insight into how equally challenging and rewarding working in a school can be.  With this experience I feel that I can offer support to ensure the best possible standards of education for all children attending the school.
