Our sincere thanks to the three candidates who put themselves forward for the role of Parent Local Governor and to all parents and carers who voted in the election. We are pleased to congratulate Aviva Leeman who received the most number of votes. Aviva will now be appointed to the Alexandra Park School Local Governors’ Advisory Group (LGAG), pending the required checks. Aviva’s personal statement is included below.
I have two boys at APS – one with complex SEND. Both were welcomed equally; each now supported towards their unique interests and dreams.
Working at the intersection of culture and social innovation, I have significant experience in public arts, education and widening-participation; as well as in the disability-inclusion space as lived-experience expert and changemaker – currently as Civic Futures Fellow at City Hall.
I would bring a creative, asset-led approach to build on APS values and strengths in engaging the wider school community; ensuring that school – and therefore the future – is a place of belonging, possibility and achievement for all pupils.
