Julie Langdon Chair of Governors and Safeguarding Link Governor

I was a dentist for over 30 years working, initially working in hospital and then going on to own and run my own practice in Horam. I also have some experience of teaching and training adults within the social care sector.

I have lived in Heathfield for 34 years and therefore have a good understanding of the local community.

I became a co-opted governor at Maynards Green in 2023.

I am currently the co-chair, with specific responsibility for Safe-guarding, Curriculum and Data and the Training and development of Governors. Two of my grandchildren attend Maynards Green School. 

I am Chairman of Age Concern Heathfield and District and also run a fortnightly luncheon club for the elderly. In Punnetts Town.

My interests include walking, gardening, and crafts, particularly embroidery, quilting and crochet.

Ben Jones Pupil Premium and Sports Premium Link Governor

My name is Ben and have lived in the Heathfield area for most of my life. I have two children who currently attend Maynards Green. I am self employed, and working towards becoming a qualified accountant. My hobbies are Go Karting, gardening, and beer tasting.

Sarah Barnard Health and Safety Link Governor and Vice Chair

I have lived in Horam since a small child, and attended Maynards Green School myself, so I have a personal connection to the village and school. 

I am a Christian, attending Horam Chapel and an active member of the local community, so am particularly keen for the school to also be an integral part of the immediate area.

Graduating from the University of Brighton with a BA in Business and a MA in Change Management, I went on and continue too, manage the national Service Team of a large swimming pool company.

Throughout the time I have been a parent at Maynards Green, I have been a member of the Friends, going on to fill the roles of Secretary and now Vice Chair, further demonstrating my commitment to the success of the school.

As a Parent Governor, I can bring to the Governing Board, skills in Human Resources and Health and Safety, but most importantly how to implement change effectively.

Michael Hilton Early Years Link Governor
