I am currently Headteacher at St Leo’s and Southmead School in Whiston and have worked in Knowsley schools for nearly twenty years.  My first teaching post was at St Albert’s and I was at the school for over 13 years, needless to say the school holds a very special place in my heart!  I am also a Family Catechist for the Parish of St Albert the Great, my main role being to support the children of the parish in their preparation for Reconciliation and First Holy Communion.  Being a Governor at St Albert’s is an absolute pleasure as it enables me to maintain links with a community who have had such a positive impact on my own experiences!

J Dalton – Foundation Vice Chair

Appointed 1 Sept 2023 – 31 Aug 2027

Committees:  Resources; Staffing.

Lead Governor for Pupil Premium.

Allocated Class: Year 1

I have been a foundation Governor at St Albert’s for the past four years, but many years ago I was Clerk to governors also at St Albert’s and have seen many changes over the years.  Greater emphasis is now upon Governors to challenge  and support the school and also upon the staff to conform to the standard required by the Education Authority.  The children now enjoy a much more intense and varied curriculum and greater demands upon the staff.

I am a Eucharistic Minister at St Albert’s and also a Catechist helping the children preparing for Holy Communion. I enjoy the interaction with both the children and the staff at St Albert’s and am impressed by the dedication of the staff and Headteacher and the various opportunities afforded to the children. I am proud to be a governor of this school.

Allocated Class: Year 5.

I joined the Governing board of St. Albert’s in 2017 as a foundation Governor. I am a regular worshipper at St Albert’s Church and a local resident of Stockbridge Village / Cantril Farm.  I believe schools should have high expectations of all who work and learn in them and as a school governor I provide both challenge and support to the headteacher and staff as they work to achieve the best outcomes for the pupils of St Albert’s. Decisions that the governing board make must centre around the best interest of the child

I have lived on Stockbridge Village for over 50 years.  I have 4 grown up children who all attended St. Albert’s Primary School.  I am a regular worshipper at St. Albert’s Church and feel passionate about our local community.  After bringing up my own children and supporting the raising of my 5 grandchildren, I know the importance of education.  I regard school as a place where children can develop key life skills, it is a place where they can find out who they are or who they want to be. I look forward to being part of the Governing board.
