Our Governors
What does a Governor do? Click here to find out!
Our Governance Board adheres to the National Governance Association Code of Conduct and their specific terms of reference in order to ensure that we fulfil our role both competently and in compliance with expected standards. We all use the NGA Learning Link to keep our practice up to date.
The Governance Board focuses primarily on strategic issues rather than operational matters and review our performance annually.

I am an appointed Parent Governor, my term running until 2025.
I am the school Safeguarding Governor and a member of the Finance and Personnel committee. I have two children at the school in Reception and Year 1. I work at HM Land Registry and in my spare time I enjoy spending time with my family, reading, walking and painting.
My priority as Governor is to ensure that all children at the school, regardless of background, need or ability, are provided with a learning environment that enables each and every one of them to fulfil their potential - in short, every day should begin and end with a smiling face.

It is my pleasure to be appointed as a community governor by the school. I have two daughters who attend the school. My family and I moved to Weymouth in 2020 after a long search for a lovely quiet place to raise our children in. We lived in the Midlands, Bristol and Essex before. I am a dentist by profession and live and work locally. I believe that every student should have a safe, healthy and encouraging education opportunities in school. With the help of God Almighty, I will try my best to help the governance board of the school in maintaining the highest quality learning environment. I like walking, swimming and spending time with my family. We are very lucky to be surrounded by such beautiful landscapes.

I’m Juliet, the new Vicar at Holy Trinity Church. Originally from Newcastle, I am married to Phill, we have 2 grown up children Dan and Ellie – and a black lab puppy called Chief Brody! We have been coming to Dorset for over 15 years each year, and are delighted that the Bishop asked me to come to be the vicar here in Weymouth.
I come to you most recently from Liverpool Cathedral – a very big church indeed. I am so pleased to be part of a church that stands for inclusivity, and will work hard to get our message of LOVE and HOPE to everyone in the parish.
I have already met the children in collective worship, and am happy to say, they seem to like my stories, my style and even my singing! So I cant wait to get involved throughout school, and get alongside the teaching staff, the support staff, governors, children and carers as best I can.
My intention is to work hard for your school and community, on Chapelhay with the play garden, by putting on activity clubs in church, and by running an afterschool club for the ‘Wayfarers’ once again.

Seth WhyChair of Governors, Parent Governor
Seth Why
I recently retired from the Fire Service after a successful 30-year career where I worked in Dorset, Wiltshire and London. I was an area manager and much of this role linked closely with His Majesty's Inspectorate of Constabulary and Fire & Rescue Services (HMICFRS) who have statutory responsibility for the inspection of the police and fire services across England and Wales. This experience will enable me to support leaders and staff to develop and deliver the strategic direction of the school to provide the best possible education for pupils. Throughout my career, I have been fortunate to work with many diverse groups and communities. My experience and calm approach enable me to work well with people from different backgrounds, particularly in challenging circumstances.
I now have the time to devote to make a positive difference to the local community. My son is in a Reception class and my daughter is in Nursery. I am keen to contribute positively to the Governance Board to strengthen Holy Trinity Primary's future for the benefit of all pupils.
