Governor Profiles

Jo Dawson

I am a working mum and have been employed by Hertfordshire County Council in my current role as Schools Financial Sustainability Manager since March 2022, prior to that I was employed by HFL Education as a Schools Financial Adviser. My background is finance and human resources, and in 2009 I completed a Masters in Human Resources Management. In my spare time I play netball and compete in flyball competitions with my dog. I also spend a lot of time on the side line of various pitches throughout the year supporting my son in his sporting endeavours! I am also a Governor at Hartsfield School, Baldock.

Darren Lovelock

Darren works for a large Retail Bank as a Technology Transformation Manager. His role looks at what Technology can be deployed or improved to help customers and colleagues. He will own the end-to-end process from idea to delivery. He has scale leadership experience from his time as a Branch Manager. He has been a Governor since 2010 and is the current lead on Health and Safety as well as the lead for GDPR. His outside interests include Running, Football and Music.

Jo-Ann Staniforth

I am a parent to 3 and a grandmother to 7, one of whom attends this school.  When my children were young, I helped in the classrooms with reading and mathematical games.  My occupation is an office manager, although I am a lady with many professional attributes. I enjoy my family and love doing activities with the children, watching them grow and learn.  I am open-minded, confident, passionate, fair, caring and my morals and values will be an asset to this school.  I believe in Longmeadow Primary School.

Tanya Goddard. 

I have been a Teaching Assistant at Longmeadow since 2007. I'm also a member of the School's 'Wellbeing Team'.I love supporting our children to have a positive School learning experience.When I'm not at work I enjoy meditating, watching films at the cinema and spending time with my two grown up sons.I wanted to become a Staff Governor at Longmeadow as I feel it is an additional way I can support the children and Staff.
