Governors
On behalf of the Governing Body we would like to welcome you and your child to Mulgrave Primary School. Our aim is to ensure that all children have a lifelong love of learning and that we create a supportive caring environment to do this.
The Head Teacher and staff are a strong, committed team who work together in collaboration with you to get the best results for all children.
We are an active Governing Body who are involved and welcomed in the school. At times you will see us out and about, especially at events or when we visit to monitor the different aspects of school life. We welcome your ideas on how we can improve what we do and what you love about Mulgrave school.
As a school, we are delighted to have achieved the Primary Science Quality Mark – Outreach award. The Primary Science Quality Mark Outreach (PSQM-O) was established to enable primary schools to evaluate, strengthen and celebrate their science provision. Mulgrave has demonstrated that excellent teaching practice and leadership in science is visible, sustained and evolving across the whole school, and that this excellent practice has had a clear impact on the pupils and partners beyond the school.
Both staff and pupils are extremely proud of this achievement and have immensely enjoyed going through the process of obtaining recognition for our work in science.
We also achieved a very positive Ofsted report. We thank our staff teams for their hard work in gaining and maintaining these excellent standards.
Chair of Governors- Chris Tuffey
I am honoured to be Chair of Governors at Mulgrave School, having joined as a co-opted Governor in early 2022. As a school governor since 2008, my motivation stems from a deep belief in the transformative power of education and its pivotal role in shaping a safe, happy, and successful future for our children.
Mulgrave stands out to me as an energetic school that has created a safe and stimulating environment, serving as a launchpad for children to realise their full potential. The school fosters a lifelong love of learning, providing students with the tools they need to navigate the world ahead successfully.
With nearly 40 years in financial services, including international experience, I believe I bring a wealth of insights to the governing board. I strongly advocate for the importance of numeracy and confidence with numbers, recognising their role in social and economic mobility. I have witnessed firsthand the value that a diverse and inclusive culture brings, and I am passionate about fostering such an environment at Mulgrave.
Beyond academics, I have a keen interest in sports, health, and overall wellness, understanding the positive impact of physical activity on the mind. I believe in nurturing not only academic excellence but also the holistic well-being of our students.
It is a privilege to contribute to a school that is known for its nurturing, creative, and successful approach to education. I am excited about the opportunity to be part of Mulgrave's journey in providing an enriching educational experience for your children.

I decided to apply to be a governor through Governors for Schools after hearing how important early years support is on young peoples success in adulthood. I work in higher education and we work hard to support young people to succeed, but if children are well supported and find a love of learning in primary school, it can have a much bigger impact on their success in life than a university education can have.
I've been a co-opted governor at Mulgrave since early 2020 and have been so impressed with the exceptional support Mulgrave offers. I particularly relate to our services families, as my Dad served in the army and moved regularly with my siblings and I, so I know how important it is to have a supportive welcome to a new school. I enjoy being part of the Mulgrave community and hope as a governing board, we can help take Mulgrave from strength to strength. |

My name is Ian Taylor. Myself and fellow Governors work closely with Ms Martha Holder, as well as the Senior Management Team and all staff, to make sure a high standard of teaching and learning is maintained within the school and that your child learns within a safe and fun environment. We pride ourselves in being a fully inclusive community school full of diversity which enriches the learning within it. I hope your child's time at Mulgrave is a happy one, and when it's their time to go on to Secondary education that they have a good standing to progress to meet their full potential in life. |

My name is Diana Bruce and I am a Associate Governor. I live in Charlton and taught English for many years in a local comprehensive school. Together with the other Governors, I am committed to ensuring that all Mulgrave pupils have stimulating learning experiences and make outstanding progress in every aspect of school life. I'm a member of the Learning and Achievement Committee and also enjoy supporting pupils in Year 6 with their reading skills. My own children attended Greenwich schools and it is a great pleasure, as a Governor, to make a contribution to Mulgrave's exciting development as a forward-looking community. |
