Governor Profiles

Mrs Denise Scarlett

Denise moved to Holme Hale 10 years ago to the house she grew up in.  She currently works as an HR Manager for a company in Downham Market and has over 20 years’ experience in HR and Employment Law gained in the private and public sectors.

Denise became a School Governor in September 2019 and has responsibility for monitoring SEND.  She is also the Year 1 Governor Buddy.

 

Mr Mark Hodder

Having grown up in Southampton, I relocated to Norwich to begin my degree in Geophysical Sciences at UEA in 2003… and have lived in Norfolk ever since! Following my degree, I was a teaching assistant for one year and then completed my PGCE at UEA, becoming a qualified teacher in 2008. Since then, I have worked in schools in a variety of different settings, and have gained experience as a Subject Leader, Year Group Leader, Key Stage Leader, a member of the school Senior Leadership Team and now as a Deputy Headteacher. I am also a director of a charitable company based in Norwich and a keen Southampton football fan. 

Mrs Vicki Long

I moved from South London to Norfolk in September 2000 to begin my teaching career.  My career to date has been enriched by a wonderful array of experiences working in a number of different leadership roles.   In January 2019, I was thrilled to commence my Headship here at Necton VA Primary School.  I am a member of the Executive Board for Norfolk Music Hub.  I remain a keen musician and enjoy playing my Violin as a member of the Music Group at St John the Baptist Roman Catholic Cathedral, Norwich.

Mrs Jane Barley

I moved to Norfolk in 1991 from Cambridgeshire. I am a midwife and for ten years worked on the community in Swaffham and surrounding area before moving back into the hospital for a career change. I came to know the area and surrounding villages very well. I became a Governor at Necton middle School in 2000 when my daughter started school there and I continued as a Governor through the transition to becoming a Primary school. The role of a school Governor has changed dramatically over the last few years and I have enjoyed the challenge of this role. I have learnt a lot about education and the changing demands upon families and children.  I took on the role of Vice Chair in 2016 and became Chair of Governors in 2017. It is a role that I am passionate about and want to be able to ensure that we provide the best for our children.

Mr Peter Simpson

As a keen birder and wildlife photographer I made regular visits to Norfolk for many years before finally moving from Hertfordshire to Necton in 2002. I worked for the RSPB in Norwich before stopping work to look after my children. My children have attended Necton school since 2003 and I joined the governing board in 2017. I am chair of the curriculum and standards committee and have a particular interest in science and religious education. I am the year 4 governor buddy.
