Mrs Coxon – Chair of Governors – Foundation Governor
“My affiliation with English Martyrs began when my elder daughter joined the school in 1990. I was treasurer of the PTA for ten years and was honoured and delighted when I was invited to become a Foundation Governor in January 2000. I have had the pleasure of working with three Head Teachers all with their own fantastic visions and aspirations for our children. We have a fantastic staff at English Martyrs who work incredibly hard to ensure that every child achieves their full potential. I am a member of English Martyrs Parish and love the sense of Community when School and Parish come together.”
