Parent Governors

Why I chose to be a Governor:

Hornsey’s diverse student body, dedicated staff and amazing campus are a recipe for a unique school that is on the cusp of being outstanding. As a Governor I am excited to be working with staff who share this vision.

Catherine Lawrence:

Length of Service as Governor: Since February 2020

Background:. I have been a teacher for 16 years working in Early Years settings and Primary Schools in Islington and Camden. I am currently Head of School at Moreland Primary School in Islington where both my children have attended. I have been a staff governor at Moreland for 8 years and when my daughter (currently in Y8) moved up to secondary school at Hornsey I was keen to get involved with the governance at HSG. I am passionate about all children and young people receiving a rich, broad curriculum and share the high aspirations Hornsey has for all students to achieve.
