Meet the Governors
If you are looking for information such as minutes of Governing Body meetings, or other reports of the activities of the Governing Body, please click here .
Ridgefield Primary is supported by a team of dedicated governors who ensure that the school meets a range of statutory obligations and hold the management of the school accountable to meet our development goals and outcomes. The governors are also involved in the daily life of the school, attending assemblies plays and events and linking with classes. We value the contributions our governors make to Ridgefield Primary.
Our school governors meet regularly throughout the year. With the Headteacher, they take responsibility for finance, premises, health & safety and the curriculum. Parent governors are often available in the school playground, should you wish to talk to them.
Stephen Kent-Taylor is the Chair of Governors.

Elena Williams
Hello, my name is Elena Williams. I became a Parent Governor in 2015. I have two young daughters, one of which attends Ridgefield Primary School. I decided to apply for the role because I am interested in education and I enjoy working within the school community. I have one college degree in teaching and two university degrees in journalism and translation. I welcome the opportunity to contribute and further develop my support for the school.
