Governors’ Profiles

Annette Hayton

Annette Hayton – Chair of Governors

I became Chair of Governors at Hayesfield in October 2016 after serving as a Community Governor for two years. I moved to Bath in 2012 to take up the post of Head of Widening Participation at the University of Bath, a post I held until July 2018. A large part of the role was managing and developing activities to help school students find out more about higher education and careers, so I came to know our local schools quite well.  I have worked in education for most of my career in various roles and strongly believe that a good school  should have high expectations of all students as this is a key element to academic success.

Mark Whiteley

Mark Whiteley – Deputy Chair of Governors

I have been a Governor at Hayesfield since 2009, with both of my daughters having spent their whole secondary education at the School. I am Vice Chair of the Governing Body and I am also Chair the Learning Committee. I strongly believe in the Hayesfield vision and values and I support the School whenever I can, wherever that may be.

Away from Hayesfield, I am self-employed as an environmental auditor, with specialisation in carbon management and sustainable energy. I also provide governance services to a food manufacturing and agricultural products company based in the north-west.

Roger Chapman

Roger Chapman

Now retired, I was formerly an internal auditor in the NHS, managing a consortium for 3 hospital trusts and 4 primary care trusts. My daughter spent 7 happy years at Hayesfield, qualified at the Royal Veterinary College and is now a vet in Nottinghamshire. My son completed his A Levels at Hayesfield, graduated from University College London and now teaches English at a Chinese school in Hong Kong.

I became a governor in 1993 and am now a Community Governor. When my son left Hayesfield in 2002, I stayed on, mainly because of the exciting capital projects we were about to embark on. For much of my time as a governor, I chaired what is now the Business Committee, of which I remain a member.

I am pleased to have joined Hayesfield Girls’ School as a Governor. I am an experienced HR professional with over 10 years of Human Resource experience in various industries including Technology, Law, Property Management and Engineering. I currently run my own HR Consultancy business providing HR solutions to Tech SMEs focusing on talent attraction, retention and diversity.

As a member of the CIPD I am a part of their mentoring programme to help young people enter the workforce, and act as a mentor to HRM Masters students of UWE. In my early career I worked as a Teaching Assistant in a Dioceses run Primary school supporting children with special needs and reception age pupils.

I have been a governor of Hayesfield since May 2016 and a member of both the Business and Learning committees. I am also the specialist governor for Special Educational Needs (SEND). Both of my children have been educated at Hayesfield. My younger daughter is currently in Year 11.

With over 30 years business experience in financial services including product development, programme management, strategic consulting and marketing I hope my expertise will contribute to the future success of Hayesfield for the benefit of students, parents, staff and community stakeholders in what continues to be a challenging economic environment for all schools.

Emma Yates – Headteacher

I have worked in education for all of my career, starting in September 1997 as a Science Teacher in Poole. All of my posts have been based in the South West and I moved to Bath in 2009 to take up the post of Assistant Headteacher at Oldfield School. In 2012 I secured the Deputy Headship at Backwell School where I had the leadership of the curriculum and pastoral teams. I became Headteacher at Hayesfield in January 2014 and every day I consider myself to have the best job in the world! I strongly believe in providing an outstanding education for students from all backgrounds and of all abilities and I know all the staff and governors at Hayesfield share this belief. Hayesfield’s commitment to character development and academic success ensure that all of our students have the opportunity to achieve their ambitions.
