Julie Boyle

I am Julie and my daughter attends St Joseph's school. When she started in reception I applied to become a parent governor as I very much wanted to have an active role in school and support our community to help our children thrive. I am now a foundation governor and recently became Chair. I am about to enter my fourth year on the board. My working career has centred around supporting and empowering people experiencing challenges. I have worked in the health and social care sector for almost 20 years, more recently working in victim support services and services supporting families. I am so pleased to be able to continue to support our wonderful school community.

Anne Schwodler

I was appointed as a Foundation Governor at St Joseph’s in March 2022, and see my role as ensuring that all pupils receive the best possible education, in a school that prides itself on living out the Catholic vision and ethos.

I am a practising Catholic and have been an active member of the Parish of Our Lady, the Immaculate Conception for ten years.

As a trained teacher, I have taught children across the primary age range. Prior to joining St Joseph’s Board of Governors, I spent eleven happy years as Headteacher of St Mary’s Infant School in Marlborough and Marlborough St Mary’s Primary School. I retired at the end of December 2022.

It is a great privilege to be a governor at St Joseph’s. I find it hugely rewarding to work with such a wonderful, dedicated school community, to ensure all our children are given the opportunities and support they need to achieve their full potential.

I was appointed as a Foundation Governor at St Joseph’s Catholic Primary School early in 2023 and this is my second term of office as a governor at the school; my first commenced in 1993 and included ten years as the Chair.

I currently work in the field of Safeguarding and have experience working as an independent Safeguarding Consultant. I have been involved in a number of reviews of safeguarding provisions in both local authorities as well as Fire and Rescue Services. Prior to this, I worked in senior management and have significant experience in the fields of operational and resource planning as well as staff management and development. I believe these skills and experiences will allow me to support staff in delivering a first class education.

I am a practicing Catholic and I firmly believe that a Catholic education offers our children a learning and developmental pathway based on the central teachings and values of the bible and Catholic faith, these allowing our children to develop and shine as the individuals they are.

I became a parent governor at St Joseph’s in March 2023, my daughter who currently is in year two joined reception class in September 2021. Sharing and seeing her growth through her early years and the feel we had as parents was the reason, I wanted to join the school board and be a part of this amazing school. 

Before my appointment I really had no experience in education, having worked lots of several types of jobs including in care, which I spent over 12 years as a senior member of staff. But through the help and knowledge of my fellow board members and senior leaders in school along with training and continued professional development, that lack of experience in the start is quickly being replaced and now I have recently become a link governor in core curriculum subjects of maths and science.  

Bringing a parent's perspective to the governing board, and the opportunity to help the school to allow all children to SHINE and be the best they can be is something I am proud to be part of.
