The School Standards Board  

 
Miss Catherine Emmott Chair

I grew up locally and moved back to Oxted in 2004. I have a law degree and am a qualified Chartered Surveyor. Most of my career has been spent managing large property portfolios in London and briefly in Jersey. More recently I have been bursar at a local primary school.

I became a Governor at de Stafford in June 2011 and in my spare time I love to look after my large horse and two small rescue dogs who keep me very busy!

 
Mr Jeremy Garner SSB Member - Headteacher
I have served on the Governing Body of de Stafford School since my appointment as Head Teacher in September 2013. I completed a Post-Graduate Certificate of Education in Physical Education having graduated with a degree in Sports Science. Since qualifying as a teacher nearly 30 years ago, I have worked in three different Surrey secondary schools (Therfield, St Bede’s, de Stafford) and completed my National Professional Qualification for Headship (NPQH) in 2009. My current role as Executive Headteacher involves overseeing the performance of two GLF secondary schools, de Stafford and Merstham Park.  
Mrs Clare Wingrave SSB Member - Safeguarding
I live locally in Caterham and am the principal of Oasis Academy Byron, a thriving primary school in Coulsdon. My three children attended de Stafford and the school provided them all with very firm foundations for life and their future learning.  
Mr Roger Aburrow SSB Member - Parent
I live locally and my son is in his final year at the school. I work in London, heading up risk and compliance training for Northern Trust Bank and I care deeply about supporting my local community.
