I took early retirement but soon became restless and started a small craft business to exercise my creative talents. I demonstrate products and share techniques on daytime television.
I have been a resident of Richings Park since 2013 but also share some of my time with my family in Canada. I would like to bring to the school my business experience and creativity, to support the families of Iver Village Infant School.

I have lived in the local area all my life and I attended the school many years ago. Being a governor enables me to play a greater part in the school for the committed staff and young achievable children.
The skill sets that I can contribute are legislative compliance, contractor management, insurance types and levels, process and culture changes, finding resolutions, financial forecasting and budget tracking which I am excited to bring to the Schools Governing Board.

Parent Governors
Bushra Razzeque
I have been a qualified teacher for 8 years, having graduated from the Institute of Education with a PGCE in Business and Economics Education. I am a mother of two boys, my eldest currently in attendance at Iver Village Infant School. I believe that being a parent allows me to understand the needs of children first and foremost. I also understand that this must be balanced with the difficult and challenging task of running a school. I would like to use my teaching background to help with this practical implementation.
My mentality and passion for teaching has always come from a “children first” viewpoint and I hope to continue this in my role as parent governor, and be able to help achieve the full potential of the school.
