Claire Edwards

Trust-appointed Governor

Before moving to Harrogate in 1999 I worked as a Finance Officer for the Local Council, focussing on introducing Best Value.

I began working at Western when my son started school (he is starting his PHD in September), and relished working within an educational setting and soon felt part of Western’s community.

I work predominantly in KS2 and am the current Sustainability Lead for the school, organising Uniform Swaps, Rewilding initiatives, Eco Council and Earth Squad.

My areas of responsibility on the Governing Body are Health & Safety and Attendance.
