Our Governors
At Leechpool, the Governing Body is highly valued, teamwork being a priority. We work with the school, with the aim of improving standards and striving for excellence.
Good governance is not just about sitting in meetings. We endeavour to stay updated on, and apply, new legislation. Our governors are hands on and assist with school events such as fayres, fundraising events, new parents induction evenings, outings and special events. Governors also attend classes to monitor the impact of the teaching on our learners, assemblies, inset and training days, inspections and LA reviews, to name but a few areas of involvement.
Current parents are welcome to contact governors with questions or general feedback. Please note that parents should always contact the school directly with any concerns. Likewise, we encourage any prospective parents who are thinking of sending their children to Leechpool to browse through our website and, importantly, to visit our school so you can see first-hand what Leechpool has to offer.
Regular Governor Updates

Miss Eliza Graham
Staff Governor: curriculum and Mental Health Representative
I have lived in Horsham for 23 years. I joined Leechpool in September 2023 as a Class Teacher. I am currently teaching in Year 2. I am joint PE lead at Leechpool.
I joined the governing body in June 2024 and my responsibilities are Curriculum and Mental Health. I applied to be the Staff Governor as I see it as an incredible opportunity to support fellow staff members and children at Leechpool.
I love teaching and believe that children should all have the best opportunities to broaden their education. I am proud to be a member of Leechpools staff and the Leechpool community.
