Parent Community Group/Trustees
"Let us not become weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up". - Galatians 6:9
Beacon Education comprises of one Board of Trustees.
In December 2021 we changed the name from Governors to Local School Councillors. In September 2022 WSAT became Beacon Education and we restructured the governance forming the Parent Community Group and the Academic Improvement Board - responsible for teaching and learning.

Jane Bellamy
Jane Bellamy (Link Trustee)
I was appointed as a foundation governor at Old Cleeve & St Michael's School in January 2019 and I am a Trustee for the WSAT.
For 15 years I was the headteacher of a C of E primary school near Milton Keynes & also acted as Head of the Virtual School for children in the care of the local authority. We moved to this area following my retirement & I am delighted to be able to be part of the governing body. I am keen to ensure that the Christian ethos of the school is upheld.
Mag Hatton
Mag Hatton - Foundation Governor - first appointed in 2017.
Old Cleeve School has given my son the best start to education, so I am delighted to be able to give back via the Parent and Community Group. I am keen to support the school with parent engagement, ensuring everyone feels welcome and involved in their child/children's learning. I also hope to help promote the unique and remarkable things that make Old Cleeve School so special to new parents interested in joining our school community.
PCG members declare any business interests at the start of the meeting and withdraw if there is a potential conflict.
