Jacqui Goodall – Chair of ASEC
I have worked in education for over thirty years with experience of headship and governance. Although I have mainly worked in the secondary sector, it is a delight to work with primary schools as it is here that pupils learn the basic skills and knowledge that will equip them for life-long learning and their future aspirations. It is a privilege to support the School in its aims to ensure all children become confident, competent and caring learners, within its safe and secure Christian environment.
