Chair of the Governing Board  

Mrs Rosemary Inskipp (Foundation Governor)

I am proud to say I was a former pupil of St Roses and both my children also attended the school.  I was also a parent governor of the school many years ago when my children were attending, so I have a long history with the school.  My background is in marketing and business development however over the last 15 years I have been involved in education and safeguarding as I set up and ran some of the school based family support services working with 24 schools in Dacorum so I have developed extensive experience in this area and have worked with many different schools, including St Roses during that time.  I have always loved St Roses School and I have been delighted to have been back serving as a Governor this year.
