Governor Profiles

 

Tracy Bryden

I became the Head Teacher of the Round House Primary Academy in September 2013, having previously worked within the Diamond Learning Partnership Trust as Deputy Head Teacher at Middlefield Primary Academy.

 

Prior to teaching, I worked as a food technologist with H.J. Heinz and within financial management as a branch manager, trainer and area manager, and later running my own company to provide consultancy services to large financial institutions.

 

My experience in education has involved working with all year groups and with the development of teachers and students, working with other schools and universities.

 

In addition to my position at Wintringham, I am also the Headteacher at The Round House Primary Academy, I am the Trust’s Deputy CEO, Chairperson for Cambridgeshire Primary Heads.

 

I am immensely proud of Wintringham, its pupils and teachers, and of the way in which the school has grown to become an inspiration to other schools in the Trust and beyond.


Stacey Roberts

I have worked at The Round House Primary Academy and more recently Wintringham Primary Academy for over 10 years but have worked in education for over 20 years. I joined the School governors four years ago and was previously a community governor at Winhills Primary Academy.

 

Prior to working in primary schools, I worked as a nanny to three children, a nursery nurse in a private day nursery and I have been the proprietor of my own Pre-School, Boxtree Under Fives in Middlesex, before relocating to St Neots.

 

I have varied experience in Early Years and Primary education, having been a nursery nurse, a class based 1:1 teaching assistant, a pastoral support teaching assistant and an outreach worker for families with children who have disabilities. I am currently the Inclusion Manager and Designated Person for Child Protection at Wintringham and The Round House. I have worked with children across all Key Stages and also work closely with teachers, teaching assistants, apprentices, students and a range of outside agencies.

 

I live on Loves Farm and have a vast knowledge of the local community and surrounding area.

 

I am really proud to be part of Wintringham's team, and feel very passionate about the journey that the staff and children have been on to make such an amazing success of our school, despite many changes and challenges.

 

Lara Davenport-Ray

I was born in the United States, where I studied engineering at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). I then moved to the UK and completed my further education with a Master’s degree in Social Anthropology from the University of Cambridge. Soon after that I became a UK citizen.

 

My work history has provided me with experience across a range of sectors. My previous employers include Deloitte, Aviva Insurance, The Royal Household and The National Trust. I currently work part-time for Love’s Farm Community Money Advice, providing free confidential advice to local families. Wintringham School kindly allows us to meet with clients on the school grounds. Many clients have been school families and school employees.


My son was part of the first Reception Class to attend the new Wintringham School. As he grows, I would like to become more involved in our local school system, particularly in St Neots’ eastern communities.

 

The population of our town will grow very quickly over the next two decades. I have begun working with County Councillors to address future-planning on the number of places available for our secondary school children. I hope that I can also use my skills and experience for the benefit of primary pupils with the Diamond Learning Partnership Trust.

 

Hugues Kamba-Mpiana

Holds a First class degree in Digital Communications and Electronics.

Currently leads a team of Software Engineers working on various projects to simplify the development and management of Internet of Things (IoT) devices.

 

Previous representative positions include:

* University class student representative (2 years)

* Diversity Equity and Inclusion (DEI) champion (3 years)

* Employee Resource Group (ERG) leader (2 years)

 

Joined the Local Governing Body to give an active voice to parents in order to ensure the children get the best out of their education experience.

 

Believes in teaching children the skills they will need later on in their life, skills such as:

financial literacy, computer programming, leardership, independent thinking, self-defense and emotional intelligence.

 

Grateful for having gained parents confidence to represent interests and raise concerns.

 

Cassie Booker

I'm a Science secondary teacher, living in Loves Farm. I have a first-class honours degree in Biochemistry from UCL and a Masters degree from the Institute of Education. I have been teaching for the past 11 years at state secondary schools, in Medway, London and now Bedford.

 

I have a 2 year old son that attends The Round House Pre-School. As a governor, I hope to add value at The Round House and Wintringham School with my professional experience and school knowledge and to give something back to the community I live in.
