Governors Information

I am now the Lay Reader/Minister at St. James Church after a teaching career of 36 years’ experience, 24 years of which were served at St. James School. I am passionate about the education and nurture of all children and I hope I bring a wealth of experience to the Governing Body of the school.

At present I provide the link between Church and School by providing a variety of services and activities at Church and School such as the Jesus and Me Club, Experience Days and assemblies. I also prepare families for baptism and confirmation and I am an active volunteer in the community.

I am link advisor for year 6 and also SEND and enjoy working closely with staff and classes when possible. Any spare time I have is spent at the theatre, travelling and with my family.

Term of Office: 1 September 2013 to 31 August 2023

Hello, my name is Jen Jevans. I have had the privilege of working at Latchford St James CofE school since January 2001. My roles have included teaching assistant and nursery nurse. My current role is as the school learning mentor.

During my time here, I have worked across all of the Key stages and so have experienced all of the ages and stages of development that children go through during their school journey. In the 21 years that I have been at this school, I have gained a vast knowledge and experience of our children, our school and its needs. This enables me to provide support, motivation and guidance to help our young people to succeed.

I’m committed to ensuring that every child receives the support and experiences that they deserve.

I wanted to join the school governing body because I’m passionate about our children, our school and ensuring that our school is a happy and positive place to be.

My hobbies are knitting, eating copious amounts of cake and I do love a good cheese board too!

Term of Office: 13th October 2022 to 13th October 2026

My name is Ademuyiwa Samson AJAYI. I have been appointed by the diocese as a Foundation Governor for Latchford St James Primary School.

I am a trained educationist from a reputable Nigerian university and have spent a good part of my working years with school children teaching Mathematics mostly at the Upper Basics. In those years, I was privileged to act as the Head of Department (HOD) of sciences and received the Wexford College’s Best Staff of The Year Award in 2015. In addition, I also pursue my ministerial calling as a priest of the Anglican Communion.
Presently, among other things I do, I offer Teaching Assistance to schools within Warrington through agencies.

As a Foundation Governor of Latchford St James Primary School, I am very much eager in offering my wealth of experience to give my best contributions to the governing board of the school as we mould the lives of the young ones.

My name is Christina Ewart and I’m delighted to be part of the Governing body at Latchford St James C.E. Primary School.

As a parent of two children currently attending the school and an experienced educational professional, I am passionate about contributing to the continued success and development of the school community.
I bring to the role 17 years of experience as a secondary school Art teacher, during which time I was actively involved not only in the classroom but also in shaping whole-school initiatives aimed at improving pupil outcomes and staff development. My background gives me a strong understanding of the challenges and responsibilities faced by schools, as well as the importance of high standards, strategic planning, and inclusive practice.

As a parent, I see first-hand the nurturing and high-quality learning environment that Latchford St James provides. I am committed to ensuring that all children, regardless of background or ability, have access to the very best education and opportunities.

I am looking forward to getting involved in contributing more to developing a wonderful place for all the lovely pupils in our school.
