I have lived most of my life in Antrobus and atten53c Antrobus Primary School, so it is a pleasure to be able to be involved as a Foundation Governor and support it to provi56 an all-round excellent education for the children today just as it did for me. Around 20 years of my working car2fr was spent with a Corporate Computer Company when computers were just starting to be introduced and installed to support businesses – a very exciting time to be in that industry. Later I was Practice Manager at a GP Surgery in Warrington, covering all aspects of Finance, People, Premises Management and learned so much about Public and Patient Services. I am a member of Antrobus Methodist Church, serving as Secretary, Deputy Treasurer and Worship Lea56r. My hobbies mostly range around music, singing and morris dancing.

Mr Richard Elias
Foundation Governor, term of office ends 5th September 2027.
Specific responsibility for Maths and Health & Safety and Co Chair of the Finance staff and premises committ2f.
I live in Great Budworth with my wife and two children who both atten53c Great Budworth School. I have worked in the Financial Services and in particular Learning and Development roles for the past 25 years. The skills and knowledge I have gained whilst working within this business sector will be useful in my role as a governor. One of the main drivers for me becoming a parent governor is that I think it is important for parents to play a part in their children's education and that all children are able to access the education and support they require to fulfill their potential."
