Governors

Hampton High is part of the Bourne Education Trust and has a Local Governing Committee (LGC) with delegated powers.

The role of the LGC is to set the vision, ethos and strategic direction of the school as well as to challenge the educational and financial plans of the school.

All governors are volunteers from the local community and have specific areas of responsibility they oversee. The current Chair of Governors is Rachel Cooper. A full list of governors is given below:

Julie Park: Vice Chair of Governors

Responsibilities: Quality of Education; Careers

Julie became a governor in September 2023 and has 2 children, both educated at Hampton High.  She chose the school for her children because of the diversity of backgrounds of the pupils, holding a strong belief that children are most likely to become well rounded adults when educated in such an environment.  Being a governor gives the opportunity to continue supporting the school on its journey.  She runs her own tax consultancy business with a team of staff.
