The Governing Body of Lime Walk Primary School

Sarah Carmichael - Co chair of Governors

I joined the governing board as a parent governor in January 2019 and later that year was elected Co-Chair.

I grew up in Hemel Hempstead and attended both primary and secondary schools within the area.

For the past 17 years i have worked in the finance industry, primarily in Pension Administration.

I am also an active volunteer for the Royal British Legion’s Poppy Appeal.

Sue Thorpe - Co chair of Governors

I am a partnership governor and Co-Chair of Governors.

I have been associated with Lime Walk School for over thirty years. Initially as a  class teacher, then as SENCO and Deputy Head.

I became a governor, first as a staff governor , then on retirement I became a partnership governor. I have always been interested and keen to foster children's learning whether in my roles in the teaching profession or as a mother and grandmother. I take a particular interest in SEND, safeguarding and English. I continue to enjoy being a part of school life and hope to help in the development of Lime Walk.

Vicky Hewitt - Associate Governor

I have worked at Lime Walk Primary School since 2008 and have had various roles in that time. 

I have been Deputy Headteacher since 2012 and have been lucky enough to teach in all year groups across the school.  I am currently responsible for Early Years, Pupil Premium expenditure and overseeing the curriculum - roles within which I take great pride in making a difference for our pupils from the very start of their journey with us until they head off on their future adventures. 

I have two young children of my own, the eldest of whom has just started reception, so I feel I have a new perspective on the importance of working together for the best outcomes for our children.

 

Mohammed-Awais Ahmed - Parent Governor

I am a parent governor whose children have attended the school since September 2015.

I possess an LLB Law degree as well as a Postgraduate Masters in Legal Practice and am employed as a Civil Servant and works for the Home Office in Central Government.

I am a keen sports coach and manage a local grassroots football and Cricket team.

Liza Isaac - Staff Governor

I joined Lime Walk in 2014 as the Family Liaison Officer and I am also a Deputy Safeguarding Lead for the school. My job role allows me the oppotunity to spend lots of time with the children and their families.

I have worked in Education in Hertfordshire for 28 years.

I have two children, one of whom studied at Sheffield University and the other is currently in secondary school in Hertfordshire taking GCSE’s.

I am new to the staff governor role and I am looking forward to learning more.

Andrew Kerse - Headteacher

I have been headteacher at Lime Walk Primary School since September 2020 and have over 30 years of experience working with governors at school.  Throughout my career I have always worked in Hertfordshire and have extensive knowledge of working in Hemel Hempstead and the surrounding area.  I have been a governor in 7 schools throughout the county and have chaired a number of committees, working parties and governor training groups over my 25 years as a school governor.

I have two children who have moved through the education system and am married to a teacher who works in another authority.  As my children grew up I volunteered at the local scout group and co-managed one of the sections for five years.  In addition to that I managed a Colts Cricket team at a local club, am presently on the DSSN (Dacorum Schools Sports Network) steering committee and supported my son's football team every weekend by assisting the management.  I have extensive experience of sitting on committees to provide opportunities for young people.
