My name is Jenna Bardsley and I have a been Hadfield Infants parent since 2018 when my son started. I now have a daughter attending - currently (2024) in year 1.

Although I have no background in education I am passionate about the education children receive and have a desire to do what I can to help ensure every child receives the support and opportunity to succeed in life in a safe and nurturing environment.

I feel that my work as an Advanced Practice Physiotherapist  (within the NHS healthcare sector) has enabled me to develop the appropriate skills required to successfully fulfil my Governor role: including decision-making under pressure and in complex situations; leading and engaging teams to achieve shared goals and outcomes; being held accountable for decisions made; mentoring peers and junior staff members; communicating in a broad variety of situations with many different personalities/professionals/individuals (patients and relatives).  

I have experience of governance within my clinical setting at work, having been part of a number of steering and governance groups to ensure best practice is delivered and to ensure individuals are held accountable to actions/decisions made.  I am comfortable speaking up on behalf of others and asking what can seem to be difficult questions.
