I have been a co-opted governor at Alfred Salter Primary School since July 2021 and am on the Curriculum & Standards Committee. I worked for Historic Royal Palaces for 30 years, specialising in improving disabled access across all the sites and helping to organise community events and educational visits. I am an amateur musician and currently play in a community orchestra, am a bellringer and sing in a number of local choirs.

Matt Harry
I’ve been a co-opted governor at Alfred Salter since 2019 and sit on both the Resources and Curriculum & Standards committees. I most enjoy spending time on the financial and strategic initiatives for the school and believe strongly in the need to be constantly seeking to improve and build on the wonderful foundations which exist today in order to benefit all members of the Alfred Salter community. My day job sees me working at a global investment firm where I spend time working closely with management teams of the businesses we invest in to help analyse financial performance, develop business plans and drive change.
