Mr John Hughes

Chair of Governors


My name is John Hughes I’m married with 4 grown up children and live in Buckley. I’m the grandad of Elliott Jones in Reception whose brother Oliver also attended the school.

Apart from volunteering as a Governor I also enjoy keeping fit and Trail running.

Recently retired, my main background has been in Secondary education, primarily as Head of Mathematics, although prior to this I did work for 12 years in the Steel Industry as an Industrial Chemist.

I’m both honoured and privileged to be Chair of the Governing Body and working with the leadership team, staff, and my brilliant colleagues in the governing body team, to Monitor, Challenge and Support the school to achieve its aims and objectives through its Vision.

We are constantly reviewing our monitoring processes ready to meet the new challenges that lie ahead, the New Curriculum for Wales, the ALN code of practice reforms and the wellbeing of our pupils and staff.

As you may notice we now have a presence on the school website where you can find information on who we are, what we do and when we meet, we all hope that you will find this useful.
