Who are our governors? 

About us 

Judie Anderson - Chair of Governors

I have been a governor at Shardlow Primary School for over 10 years,  Chair of Governors for the past 7 years and am currently a Director of Willows Academy Trust. I have also been a magistrate since 1999 sitting in both adult and youth courts as a bench chair.

My background is in accountancy, helping my husband in his practice and , for many years running my own business completing VAT returns for clients. I am now retired which means that I can give as much time as is required to the school.

Currently I teach twice a month; Preservation classes for adults and give cookery demonstrations to voluntary groups throughout Derbyshire.  

The skills and attributes I bring to the Governors include a knowledge of the education system; a wide range of knowledge of the village and the school’s stakeholders; experience of committees and a love of learning.

I am a mum with  2 children currently at Shardlow Primary School and another one who is now at secondary school.

I took on the role of parent governor as I love the school, the Shardlow spirit is second to none and I’m hoping to put some of my skills to good use to support the school.

I have an international business background in business development and large account management. For the past 10 years I have been running our property lettings and management business with my husband. So with all that under my belt, I have a wide variety of skills from commercial to operational to HR, as well as speaking French and Italian.
