Meet our Governors
Victoria College and Victoria College Preparatory School have a joint Board of Governors that meet regularly to oversee and support the schools. Our Governors are drawn from a wide range of backgrounds and professional disciplines and bring their expertise to their roles.
Governors are appointed to provide:
- Stronger links between the school and the community
- A wide experience of the outside world
- An independent view and common-sense approach
- A visible form of accountability for the Headteachers and staff of the schools
- Support for the Headteachers and staff
The Chair of the Board is Richard Stevens, contactable at: r.stevens@vcj.sch.je.
Mrs Katya Petty, Clerk to the Board of Governors, holds a full list of contact information for the Governing Body along with their Register of Business Interests. Please email Mrs Petty on k.petty@vcj.sch.je or (01534) 638200 if you require any of this information.
