Stuart Haskell - is our current Chair of Governors he writes

I have been a parent governor of Hungate School since 1999 and I am currently the vice Chair. My daughter Lucy attends Hungate, as did my older son who is now at Sherburn High School. I became a governor because I wanted to be able to make a difference to our children’s education. I have many years in the insurance industry and now run my own business so I am able to bring my experience from my work to the governing body.

Throughout my time as a Governor we have overseen a large number of changes that have really made a positive contribution in raising standards throughout the school. I am proud of our role.

Mrs B Long is an LEA Governor.
Hello - I was born and spent my childhood and youth in Sherburn not moving far away when I married in 1976, we now live in South Milford.
My contact with Sherburn has always remained through my parents (now both deceased) and friends; indeed I regularly visited Hungate School when my godchildren were pupils many years ago.
I have two children, now both grown up, living down south and an adorable grandson. My children have both graduated from University and are pursuing their chosen careers.
I work for my husband in his family Haulage Company managing the HR and administration departments, prior to that I worked in Schools and Nurseries throughout the Leeds area with children aged 3-12years. My interests other than my family, friends and garden lie in the community, I have been a School Governor for over 20 years, 15 years at one school which was closed due to reorganisation and in the last few years serving at Hungate and two other schools in the area. I have served on two Parish Councils and also enjoy working with local groups that enhance the communities in which I live.
