I have been a Foundation Governors since 1997, when I was appointed as Parish Priest by Cardinal Hume, and at the same time appointed
by the Diocese onto the Governing Body of St Catherine’s. I have always been impressed by the commitment and hard work of all the governors on the board, who give their time and talents completely voluntarily. I am now Link Governors for RE and the Catholic Life of the School.

Liz Doonan, Headteacher Governor

Headteacher
 
Term of Office:            
Ex-officio
 
Bio:                            
I joined St Catherines in 2006 as Deputy Head and class teacher.  I spent the next 6 years teaching in Years 3, 5 and 6.  In 2012 I came out of class to be full time Deputy Head and SENCO.  Prior to working at St Catherines I worked in Slough for seven years taking on many areas of responsibility including ICT, SEN, publicity and Year group leader.

In 2014 I was appointed as Headteacher at St Catherines. In 2014 I also qualified as an Associate Inspector for the Diocese of Westminster.  In this role I assist in inspecting the quality of Religious Education and Catholic Life in schools around the Diocese.  This gives me a real insight into how to improve RE at St Catherines in my other role as RE subject leader.

Bio:                            
My son Francis was a pupil at St Catherine’s from 1998-2004. I was always impressed by the warm atmosphere of the school; it struck me as a place that practiced Catholic values very well and I wanted to support that in any way I could. I therefore applied to be a foundation governor at the school in 2005, was accepted and served until 2013. I retired from the Metropolitan Police in February 2016, which has given me the opportunity to re-join the Governing Body. I am very much looking forward to once again contributing to the life of the school.
