Governor News<br />
Hi, my name is Peter Shreyhane and I am Chair of Governors at Bilsthorpe Flying<br />
High Academy.<br />

ensure the Headteacher is accountable for the educational<br />

Finally, a little about myself . I grew up in a mining community in North<br />
Staffordshire, before living in the North East for 50 years, moving back to the<br />
East Midlands last year. Speaking as a parent and grandparent and someone<br />
who didn’t learn to read until I was 9 , I appreciate just how important education<br />
is. Children only get one chance and it is up to us all to do everything we<br />
can to make sure they are given every opportunity to fulfil their potential.<br />
If anyone would like to know more about being a governor, I can be contacted<br />
through the school office. Peter.
