She values the wealth of knowledge and experience gained as a governor in both primary and secondary education.  As a governor, experience has enabled Judith to approach and undertake responsibilities with an awareness that benefits the education of all children within the school.  

Judith has a Fellowship of the HCIMA, and Certificate in Education which have paved the road for a career as a lecturer, in Higher, and Further Education and teaching in Secondary Education.  Being a Member of the Chartered Institute of Educational Assessors has enabled her to maintain a fervent interest in the quality of teaching, learning and assessment as a moderator, assessor, examiner, which is continuing to date.  

“As a governor, I have a responsibility towards Safeguarding, Health and Safety and English within the curriculum across KS1 and KS2 which are subjects of special interest to me. 

Spending time with the family, sharing and experiencing their individual interests is pleasurable. While enjoying the great outdoors and gardening is gratifying”. 

Heidi Maclachlan
STAFF GOVERNOR

Heidi grew up in Lincolnshire and attended local primary schools and KGGS in Grantham. She went on to Bishop Grosseteste University in Lincoln, where she gained her qualified teaching status. This was a lifetime ambition as she had always wanted to be a teacher since she was four years old. 

 Her teaching experience has been in local schools at Harlaxton, Grantham and then Brant Broughton, where she has been for nearly four years. Heidi has taught children from the age of four to nine years at the school.  

 Her specialist area of responsibility is maths and she has led the introduction of Power Maths into the school. She also is coordinator for PHSE, ICT and D&T. Heidi became a school governor in the Autumn of 2022. 

 She enjoys going to the gym which she does 4/5 times a week, before coming to work. Heidi also enjoys being in the outdoors and going hiking in the school holidays. Other interests include playing video games like Grounded, reading and doing jigsaws.  

She has an eight month old Bengal kitten called Roo who keeps Heidi amused with her antics like stealing bread from Heidi’s lunchbox before she came to work one day! 

JENNIFER HARVEY
FOUNDATION GOVERNOR

I am a Foundation Governor representing St. Helen’s Church where I am a churchwarden and also an Authorised Lay Minister in our group of parishes.  I am also a member of the Deanery Synod.   

I am a Trustee of the village almshouses and secretary of an organisation called Lincs Friends which raises funds for Lincolnshire charities.  I worked for twenty years for Lincoln Cathedral before retiring.

JONATHAN PELL-REYNOLDS
CO-OPTED GOVERNOR

My family and I moved to Brant Broughton in March 2017, having lived in Wellingore and Navenby for the previous 10 years.  My wife and I love the community feel of the village and hope to live here for many years to come. The eldest of our two children started at the school in Sept 2020 (and loves it!), whilst our youngest will be starting a couple of years after.   

I studied Chemistry and French at the University of Birmingham, before starting a career in banking. It wasn’t the industry for me, so I joined the RAF in 2006 as an aircrew linguist. I took my commission in 2016 and now work at RAF Waddington, having previously been at RAF Wyton. 

My main passions are hockey and ultramarathon running, having played hockey for England at a junior-level and have completed several long races ranging from 40 to 109 miles. Family life means my time is limited, so it’s rare that I get out for long runs these days.  

I was previously a community governor at Waddington All Saints’ Primary, which had a very different feel to our school in Brant Broughton.  I love the ethos of the school, the close community spirit and that all of the staff really do have the childrens’ interests at heart in all that they do. 

MICHELLE HOWARD
