Mr Matthew Clutterbuck

 Mrs Kathy Dunnett

Associate Governor/Member of finance committee 

I used to work for Herts for Learning as a Governance Adviser and I have extensive experience of volunteering as a governor across different schools.
I am really interested in Governance and I wholeheartedly believe that education can make a real difference in young people’s lives.
Prior to my role in Herts for Learning, my background was in health. I have worked in hospitals and in the community as a school nurse.
I have 3 grandchildren now, so still have a personal vested interest to support schools to be the best they can.

Mrs Sarah Bridgman

Head Teacher

Executive Headteacher/ Member of finance committee

I began my career in education in 2002 following completion of a Bachelor of Education degree. I have worked across five primary schools of varying sizes and demographics serving on the governing board of each one. I have taught across the full primary range as a class teacher, spent sixteen years at senior leadership level and am an experienced SENCO.

Mr Mick Furness

 Vice Chair Governor

I worked as a policeman in Leeds before transferring to Her Majesty’s Prison Service, where I worked through all grades in several establishments across the country to become a Governor. Among my many hats was Prison lead for Race Relations training, Lifer management and Liaison, and National Offender Management Service. I managed a workforce of over 600 and a prison budget of £16 million.  My governance experience covers two other schools, including one where I am still on the GB. I joined Thundridge to support developing the governing board in a small Church School and am Chair of Finance and Resources.  As a grandparent of ten I think I have sufficient experience of children’s expectations  in school and much enjoy  seeing the excitement that new learning brings to them.
