Naomi Eagers-Bee
Staff Governor
I am the Year 3 Lead and class teacher at Whipton Barton Federation, as well as the school’s History Lead. I am currently completing my NPQ SENCO qualification, building on my passion for inclusion and supporting all children to thrive. Having moved to Devon from London five years ago, I love being part of our school community and working alongside such a committed team. As staff governor, I am keen to ensure that the voice of staff is represented and to contribute to the continued development of our school, so that every child has the opportunity to flourish.
Helen Earnshaw
Parent Governor
I currently work in HR as a systems lead managing system processes, looking for efficiencies and ensuring data integrity. I started my HR career in the education sector where my role required an understanding of safer recruitment in education.
Previously, I began my working career in sport as a head coach of a badminton junior performance centre in Exeter. For 3 years I coached the U15 England juniors which involved travelling to tournaments in Europe. Sport has been a huge part of my life and I have enjoyed working with lots of young children over the years and supporting their development.
As a parent governor I am excited to support the school and positively contribute to the school community to ensure everyone has an opportunity to learn and excel.
