  governors  
  Kate Jenkins

What type of governor are you? Co-opted.

Why are you a governor of St Mary Magdalene Academy? I have been a governor of St Mary Magdalene Primary School for the past three years.

Which subject at school did you love best – and why? History, English and languages. In fact any subject except maths and science. I love the use of language.

What's your favourite book of all time? Too many to mention, but they would include: Jane Eyre, Anna Karenina, To Kill a Mockingbird and Green Eggs and Ham.

Who was your most memorable / inspiring teacher at school? Mrs Banham. Her enthusiasm and love of literature was totally inspiring.

What's your favourite: chocolate or ice cream? Good vanilla ice cream.

What are your hopes for St Mary Magdalene Academy? I feel very strongly that education in Islington at secondary level is not what it should be. We have a rare opportunity to create a high achieving, yet nurturing Christian school in the heart of our community. A school which will cater for all our children's needs.
