Dear Lord,
Please bless us all,
Help us to care for one another and to forgive one another,
To play and work well together,
Help us to be thankful and always to remember the love of Christ and spread his love wherever we go.
Amen
Meet the AGC
We have an Academy Governance Committee (AGC) that has some delegated responsibilities from the Trust Board of Directors as outlined in the Trust’s Scheme of Delegation. They engage with our local community. They do not hold the academy to account but carry out the following role:
Vision and Values
- Agree the vision and values for the academy with reference to the SIAMS Schedule, in partnership with the academy community, ensuring they are aligned with the Trust’s Vision and embracing equality.
- Monitor that the vision and the values are being ‘lived out’ in all aspects of the life of the academy.

David Sharman (Chair)
Co-opted Governor (appointed by the Governing Body)
End of term: 14/03/2022
My wife and I moved to Middleton in 2014 and have two children (the eldest, Thomas, attends the school). We instantly connected with the Cottingham/Middleton village community spirit and have relished the opportunity to support the various good causes. Extending this support to the village school, as a Governor, felt very natural. My career in the oil industry, predominantly in Sales / Account Management, should allow me to offer my business skills to the role as Governor. This, together with always aiming for the highest standards, I am enthusiastic about contributing to the thriving success of this school.
Alaric Nursey
Elected Parent Governor (appointed by election 17/05/2021))
End of term: 17/05/2023
Since first visiting the school before my son Charlie started here in 2015, I knew it was something I was passionate about. My role as parent governor followed on from that as I wanted to be part of ensuring the future of school remained as bright as it promised to be. I feel it is incredibly important to maintain not only a safe and secure learning environment for all pupils, but to continue to focus on their well being and enjoyment whilst in the care of the school. With a background in property and experience in the construction industry, I aim to apply my skills to my roles on the resource and health and safety committees to help maintain that environment.
Louise Willis
Foundation Governor (appointed by election 23/06/2017)
End of term: 22/07/2021
As a parent and previous teacher at the school, I am passionate about ensuring that Cottingham becomes the outstanding school it deserves to be. In my role as a Foundation Governor, I have a particular interest in ensuring that we uphold our identity as a Church school. I co-ordinate the school Prayer Space, support with Collective Worship and lead the school choir.

My Daughter Hollie attends Cottingham Primary School and my son Steven will be joining the Cottingham family in September 2020. I love that Cottingham Primary school is a small primary school, where everyone is truly supportive of each other and want the best for everyone and the school. When the opportunity arose for me becoming a Parent Governor, I felt it was an opportunity to give something back to the school which had already shown so much support to my family. I am an experienced School Governor, having been on the Finance Committee for another Primary school in Corby.
