Noreen Fraser : Chair of Governors

Noreen Fraser

Chair of Governors

I am Noreen Fraser and I have been a school Governor for nearly 30 years. I am committed to giving the children the very best education possible in the best possible surroundings. I am very proud of how Park View has evolved. It gives me great pleasure to know that the pupils in the school have the opportunity to reach their full potential. All of the staff play their part: the pupils' education and welfare is of paramount importance and the main focus. The Governors are dedicated and fully support the school in the direction in which we are going. They are very proactive and involved. It really is the case that the vision and ethos both the staff and governors all share is “Together We Grow Stronger”.

Maria Wilkinson : Parent Governor

Maria Wilkinson

Parent Governor

Hello, I'm Maria Wilkinson. I'm a mother to 3 sons aged 15, 16 and 30 years old. My youngest son attended this school. As a Parent Governor, I want to be the voice of both parents/carers and students, I want them to know they are being listened to. I will try to help them or point them in the right direction for further support. The staff and Governors at Park View School really do have the children's best interests at heart. We want to help the pupils understand that the obstacles they face through various learning difficulties won't hold them back and that they can achieve many things with the support of staff, Governors and their own effort.
