Angela McCann, MA (Ed), BEd (Hons), NPQEL, NPQH – Ex Officio Headteacher

Angela held the post of Staff Governor for a number of years before becoming an observer to the Governing Body in her role as Deputy Head, so was well aware of the work of the Governing Body before taking up the post of Headteacher.

 

Angela says, “I initially sought to become a school governor as I felt that I had the experience, skills and desire to make a positive contribution to the continuous development and success of the school, and wished to play an active role in the school and the parish community.  I was appointed as an NQT at St Alphonsus RC Primary School in September 1992, then gained promotion to the Senior Leadership Team and eventually to the role of Deputy Head Teacher, before becoming the Headteacher in 2014.

 

I am now extremely proud and privileged to lead St Alphonsus’ and want to see the school continue to thrive and grow, providing the best education, opportunities and experiences for our pupils which will enable all pupils to succeed and be the very best they can be.”
