Mr Richard Cantillon

I have had the privilege of being a governor at St.Paul's since 1997 when I was elected as Parent Governor.  I have been a Foundation Governor since 2004.  I spent six years "in the Chair" and several years as Vice-chair.  I have also spent two years as a Governor at All Hallows' one of our Academy Trust partners.

All three of our children completed their primary education at St. Pauls' over a continuous period of 16 years during which time I came to believe what a special school and community it is.

I am a general dental practitioner and we have owned and run our practice in New Mills for nearly 30 years. 

Mrs Julie Johnson

I have been an active member of St Paul’s Parish since moving to Poynton in 1973.  I served as Parent Governor during the years when my three children attended St Paul’s Catholic Primary School.  Now, grown up and with families of their own, they still have very happy memories of their time at St Paul’s. 

I trained as a teacher, first working in primary schools then at a high school where, in addition to teaching, I was a Head of Year.  I am now retired from full time work but I very much enjoy supporting a number of groups within the community and the parish, as a volunteer. 

I feel very privileged, as a Foundation Governor, to be able to support the wonderful work being done at St Paul’s Catholic Primary School.  I believe that our precious children deserve the very best primary school education where they are able to grow in confidence and knowledge and develop their beliefs because they feel safe, secure and nurtured by all those who work with them in our school.
