Ms Popat

I am Priyanka Popat and I have been elected as a School Governor at Churchfields Junior School from Sept 2025. An opportunity I am really looking forward to.

I want to use my experience as both a teacher and lawyer to make an impact in schools, for the lives of the next generation and help make impactful decisions to support students and teachers, and help foster a strong learning environment. Even though I am now a lawyer, I want to continue working in schools as this work is so important.

I have experience in understanding how a school functions, and also the environments that students need to work effectively. I am also a good listener, proactive and can provide opinions which could help make impactful decisions. I can absorb a vast amount of information in a short period of time which I think could help when there is data to analyse.

I declare, I or my relatives have no pecuniary or business interests.
