Mr Bernard Tomkins

Foundation Governor and Chair of Full Governing Body

All of my children attended St Mary's and I had served on the PTA for a number of years before becoming a Parent Governor. I was appointed as a Foundation Governor to St. Mary's Catholic Federation in 2016, initially Chair of Governors of the Junior School and elected as Chair of Governors of the Federation on its inception. I work with Public Sector bodies to find transport solutions, and a trained facilitator. I am a National Leader in Governance and work through the Diocese to help other Chairs and Governing Bodies to help ensure the furtherance of Catholic Education

Mr Adam Freeman

Foundation Governor and Vice Chair of Full Governing Body and Chair of Standards & Curriculum Committee

I have been a governor at the school for the past 11 years, firstly as a Junior school parent governor and currently as Vice Chair of the governing body and have been for the past 3 years. I am a Managing Director of an electrical contracting company and use my experience in management to support the governing body and the school SLT.

Mr Aiden Tierney

Foundation Governor and Chair of Resources Committee

I have been on the governing body for many years and originally helped set up the Finance Committee. I took over as Chair of the Finance Committee 3 years ago which is now The Resources Committee. In my business life I have run my own outside catering company for over 25 years and prior to that I worked in retail management for Marks and Spencer
