Governors
Welcome
On behalf of Djanogly Northgate Academy’s Governing Body, I would like say welcome to our new children and parents and welcome back, for another year, to all our returning children and parents.
For those of you who don’t know me, my name is Gayle Aughton and I am very proud to be the Chair of Governors here at Djanogly Northgate Academy.
I have lived in New Basford for over 25 years raising my family. During the day I work full time for the Local Authority. I believe that it is the fundamental right of all children to receive an outstanding quality of education. As Chair of Governors I am committed to working with staff, children and parents to achieve this goal.
Gayle Aughton,
Chair of Governors
