Katie Fudge
Local Governor
My name is Katie Fudge. I am a local Mum with 2 daughters who both had a great start to their education with an enjoyable time at Wickham Common. I have worked with the NSPCC for over 7 years, working with primary schools in both a safeguarding and fundraising capacity. I love the community feel of Wickham Common and through my role of Governor am keen to support the school in continuing to give local children the best possible start in life.
Johnny Cleary
Local Governor
My wife and I moved to West Wickham in 2013 from outside of the area, attracted by the green open spaces and great schools. We have 2 daughters, 1 who started at Wickham Common in 2018 and our youngest due to start in 2020. My professional background is in Financial Services, primarily in Operational Risk. This involves helping organisations identify any weaknesses in their processes and systems and establishing robust controls to mitigate these risks. Outside of work and being a Governor I look after the West Wickham Residents Association website and enjoy running and cycling.
The full Local Governing Body meets at least once every term to discuss the strategic development of the school and it's future. The LGB is there to monitor the development of the school curriculum with a view to ensuring that the curriculum fulfils statutory requirements, meets the needs of all pupils at the school and provides a range of rich relevant and varied learning experiences for all pupils. To monitor the quality of teaching as reported by the head teacher and senior leadership team through their programme of classroom observations and via the reports of external advisors/ inspectors to the school. To monitor pupil outcomes with respect to the rates of progress of pupils at the school and comparison with national figures and the progress and attainment of pupils with similar needs.
