Toni Brookshaw - Co-opted Governor - Chair of Governors

I joined the Board of Governors in March 2017 and was elected as Chair of Governors shortly after.  I am also a member of the Resources and Curriculum Committees. 

I have 15 years experience in education, across a variety of settings.  I am a qualified secondary school teacher, teaching History and Politics.  I started my career working in a school emerging from special measures, a challenge that was rewarding and from which I learnt a great deal.  I now work in a local Cheshire East school, that was rated Outstanding by OfSTED in 2015-2016. I am also the Specialist Subject Lead for History at Cheshire East SCITT.

I was secretary of Willaston Pre-School Committee from 2011-2017.  During this time, this wonderful institution was also rated 'Outstanding' by OfSTED.  This gave me a great deal of knowledge about issues within EYFS, as well as a keen interest in primary education.  I am committed to securing the vision and ethos of the school.  I welcome all conversation with fellow parents and am on the playground a few days a week should anyone want to chat.
