Jo-Ann Staniforth

I am a parent to 3 and a grandmother to 7, one of whom attends this school.  When my children were young, I helped in the classrooms with reading and mathematical games.  My occupation is an office manager, although I am a lady with many professional attributes. I enjoy my family and love doing activities with the children, watching them grow and learn.  I am open-minded, confident, passionate, fair, caring and my morals and values will be an asset to this school.  I believe in Longmeadow Primary School.

Tanya Goddard 

I have been a teaching assistant at Longmeadow since 2007. I'm also a member of the school's 'Wellbeing Team'. I love supporting our children to have a positive school learning experience. When I'm not at work I enjoy meditating, watching films at the cinema and spending time with my two grown-up sons. I wanted to become a staff governor at Longmeadow as I feel it is an additional way I can support the children and staff.
