Meet Our Governors

Last updated: July 2024

 

Amy Jones

I joined the school in 2011 as a newly qualified teacher. I was appointed as an Assistant Headteacher, with Inclusion & SENCo responsibility in September 2017. In September 2023, I became the Acting Headteacher and then secured the permanent role of Headteacher this month. I am passionate and dedicated to making sure Bayards Hill Primary School is the best it can be for all pupils. I have an 11 year old son who keeps me busy outside of school and loves spending time at the local Skate Park. My hobbies include: decorating & DIY, baking (mainly banana cake!) and spending time with my family and friends.

Linda Earnshaw

I started as a governor at Bayards in July 2019 and I was appointed Chair of Governors in September 2021. I have 26 years experience of teaching maths in secondary schools and also had a separate career as finance director of a software company. I have one son in his late twenties who has a keen interest in history.  I enjoy working with all the staff at Bayards, supporting them on improving the education of all the children attending the school. 

Elizabeth Bruerton 

Bruerton, Lizzie

I joined Bayards Hill School in 2018 as an Early Years Teacher. Prior to training as a teacher and joining this brilliant team, I worked in Children’s Publishing, specifically with children’s story comics. I had the pleasure of organising exciting outreach opportunities for children and families to work with professional comic artists, exploring imaginative worlds and creating weird and wonderful stories to accompany creative and crazy characters. Going from working with hundreds of children in auditoriums and mud-puddled festival fields, to working with 30 children in a classroom might sound quite different, but it isn’t! The creative learning opportunities are endless! Every day is different, equally as imaginative, wonderful and crazy. I am proud to be a member of the team here at Bayards, and take great pleasure in supporting the young people in our care. Outside of school I enjoy being outdoors, rock climbing, singing and playing the ukulele (badly), growing plants and being in good company.  

Glynis Phillips

I joined the Governing Board in 2013 when I was elected as the local County Councillor. My background is as a manager in the Civil Service and the NHS. We can reduce inequalities through the provision of quality education for all our children and this is a shared objective of all the staff and governors.

Elizabeth Tyler-Bell

 

I joined as a governor at Bayards Hill in 2023. I work at Oxford University Press, leading the team that creates teaching, learning and assessment services for UK schools. I am enjoying supporting the work the team at Bayards are doing to open up the life chances of all children in the community by giving them a high quality education. 

Ali Dunnett 

I joined as a governor at Bayard’s in June 2023. I work in research for schools and universities, helping to improve the children’s and students’ experience. I have two children in their twenties and a Westie who loves going for walks, especially to new and exciting places. I enjoy sewing and making things and spending time with friends and family.

 

 

Rohan Edwards

I joined as a governor at Bayards Hill in spring 2024. I am a teacher at an Oxford secondary school, teaching Politics, History and Economics. Originally from London, I have lived in Oxford for the past 7 years, and have one young child who will start reception at our local RLT primary in September. I am looking forward to working with the brilliant and lovely team at Bayards Hill and helping develop the curriculum here.

Stewart Licudi

I joined as a governor at Bayards Hill in the summer of 2024.  I have worked in the finance industry for almost 30 years, and currently run the European team of a U.S. based investment bank.  Having lived in Oxford for almost 20 years (and raised our son here) I am delighted to be able to work with the talented team at Bayards Hill to help them deliver an exceptional educational experience for all of the pupils.

Anna Kaminska

I am proud to be appointed to the Governing Body starting in June. I am the mother of two beautiful children and I understand the importance of good quality education. I am excited to be given this opportunity to support the school to be welcoming, friendly and safe place where children love to come. I love spending time with my family, and I enjoy travelling and exploring new places.
