Meetings attended:

My name is Louse Floyd and I am currently the chair of the governing body. I joined the governing body as a parent governor 7 years ago and have had the school to parent experience from yr R to 6. I live within the local community and have become a familiar face to many of the pupils I’m lucky enough to meet.

Outside of school, I work in a senior sales role promoting software within the power and energy industry. I have seen a number of changes, challenges, successes and disappointments within my time on the governing body, yet every time the school community pick itself up and strives to take the school to a higher level. I have a firm belief that every child should be encouraged and supported to obtain their best ability. I have the pleasure to work alongside people within our governing body who are fully committed to Chiltern Primary School.

Co-opted Governor

Term of Office

Meetings attended

I am Stewart Savage and have been a Co-opted Governor at Chiltern since 2019.  I joined the team of Governors when I relocated to Basingstoke in the same year.  I have always had the desire to become a  Governor and having settled in Basingstoke I took the opportunity to join the team.

I believe it is important to be an advocate not only for the school but also for the children and parents/carers of the school as well.  In my role as Governor, I am also the dedicated Safeguarding Governor.  I am passionate about education and learning and believe it should never stop.  Since becoming a Governor I can say that I have been on a learning journey as well.

From a personal point, I am a parent to three children of varying different ages with the youngest child navigating year 3 whilst the eldest lives abroad and keen trekker.  Work-wise I work in aviation having worked in several different roles.  Currently, I work in Aircraft Operations for Heathrow Airport.
