Emma Pawlik I have worked at Milton Abbot Primary School for over 4 years; I now teach Tawny Owls Class. My favourite authors are J.K. Rowling and Tom Fletcher. I particularly love the Harry Potter books and enjoy reading about the many magical and mysterious adventures the characters experience! I also enjoy reading books by Tom Fletcher, his books are very funny and the illustrations within them, really make the characters and different settings come to life! I enjoy teaching Drama, History, English and Art. My hobbies are running and exercising, reading, baking and spending time with my family. I enjoy exploring new places on Dartmoor as well as going to the seaside and different beaches within Cornwall. |

Miles Smith I have been working in education for more than twenty years in a range of contexts, both in the UK and further afield. I have extensive experience in primary education, as a class teacher and as Senior Leader. I now lead the Primary Education (BA) programme at Plymouth Marjon University. I grew up mostly in Plymouth and returned to the south-west after my first daughter was born in 2009. I am married and has two girls, and whenever I get some free time I love to walk or run on the moors. |

Jane Byrne I am a recently retired primary headteacher and was also a National Leader of Education as such I have supported a great many primary schools. I am a trained Pupil Premium and SEND reviewer. My main passion is for every child to receive the best education possible in a school where they are valued as individuals and are taught a broad and rich curriculum. As someone enjoying retirement I feel that I have the time and energy to support the school in whatever way possible. |

Brian Cook Chair of Governors |
Clerk to the Governing Body |
Karen Yorke-Dunne I currently clerk for 3 rural village schools in the Tavistock area. I have been interested in governance since my children started school in 2009. Governors work so hard for the schools and the children and staff within them; they give up their time freely with very little gratification. When I am not working I love to kayak (weather permitting) and spend time with my family at the beach or on the moors. |
