Val Bridge

Type: Foundation Governor

Responsibilities: Chair of Governors, Safeguarding, Health and Safety and RE.

Having worked for Saint Mary’s in administration for 20 years advancing to School Business Manager and acquiring the Diploma in School Business Management, that included responsibility for Health and safety and Finance, I retired at the end of August 2017.

I have a long association with Saint Mary’s spanning over 35 years, as a parent, active member of the PTA, employee and Governor and therefore have a wide knowledge that I feel helps me in my current role as Chair of Governors that I took on at the beginning of 2024.

Supporting the school and ensuring the best outcomes for children are at the heart of why I became a governor.
