Chair of Governors - Mr Brian McCarthy
Jacqueline Holmes.
Jacque moved to Ickwell in 1998 with her husband and two daughters (who unfortunately were both too old to join Northill).
She became a Trustee of Ickwell Village Hall and also volunteers for Ickwell Cricket Club and Ickwell and Old Warden Football Club.
Jacque worked in the Education sector since 1988, primarily in further education and higher education, initially as a Lecturer and then in a management capacity as a Head of Department and a Deputy Faculty Manager. She ended her employment in education as a Careers Adviser in an Alternative Academy for 11-16 year olds excluded from mainstream education, retiring in February 2022.
Jacque joined the Board in April 2022. She is committed to the wellbeing and education of the children and as a member of the community, is keen to ensure the links between the school, community and church are strong.
