The Governing Body are an integral part of the running of a school. The Governing Body provides support, guidance and governance. The board is made up of different types of Governor; parents, Local Education Authority appointed, community, teaching and non-teaching staff and the Head Teacher.

The Full Governing Body meet once every half term (6 meetings a year) and in these meetings, we discuss school issues, and ensure everything runs smoothly, policies are kept up to date and opportunities to enrich our children’s school experience are examined and developed.

Meet our Governing body

Rebecca Sims - Chair of Governors

I’m absolutely thrilled to be joining the Lliswerry Primary School community as Chair of Governors. It’s a real privilege to support such a vibrant and nurturing school, where every child is encouraged to thrive. I bring with me a wealth of experience from my time as a Primary Headteacher across three different local authorities, as well as my work as a Principal School Improvement Advisor for the region.

Currently, I serve as an officer within the Education Directorate at Newport City Council, where I continue to champion high- quality education for all. Outside of work, I enjoy reading, watching films, staying active, and discovering great food—especially when shared with good company!

As a governing body, we are wholeheartedly committed to helping Lliswerry Primary go from strength to strength. Our goal is to ensure that every pupil has access to the very best opportunities, experiences, and support throughout their journey at the school.

I look forward to working closely with staff, families, and the wider community to help make that vision a reality.
