Being an Advisory Board member at Kibworth CE Primary School gives me the opportunity to serve my local community, helping towards the wellbeing of children and staff, and ensuring our children can get the best educational start possible.

I consider it a privilege that I can give my time and energy towards a wonderful school with a great staff team and Head teacher.

As a Church of England school, Kibworth has Foundation Advisory Board members, appointed by the Diocese of Leicester, which is the team I am privileged to chair.

My main area of involvement is in Religious Education. This includes also taking assemblies, Church visits and activity days. The foundation governors are involved in helping the school be prepared for church school inspections (SIAMS), and we help the school formulate its vision and values.

We are glad to have many Christians from different churches involved in praying for the school, taking activities, running small groups such as ‘Faith Followers’ and working for the good of the school and the wider community. We also encourage strong links between the school and other Christian work in the community such as the Well, with its food bank, charity shop, prayer room and various support groups and activities.
