Keith Dixon – Chair - Co-Opted Governor
I am married to Angela and father to two girls, Lucy and Abby. I work full time as a Mechanical Design Manager in Electric/Hybrid vehicle development. I have been a governor at a local primary school in Ash for over 12 years. I hope this experience will assist me in making a positive contribution to governance at Kings. I made a promise to support the school after my youngest daughter finished her short, but very enjoyable time at Kings.
Jenny Tuck - Co-opted Governor
I have been in education all my working life. I was a secondary school teacher and middle/senior manager for 26 years before moving into advisory work for Surrey County Council and then, more recently, for Reading Borough Council where I was senior SEN/Inclusion advisor.
My passion is to ensure that children and young people with special educational needs and/or disabilities receive the best possible education that they can in order to improve their life chances. I have recently retired from full time working but continue to take a keen interest in education as a governor of two schools and as an associate consultant for a local authority.
I am also a tutor for a very successful online tutoring service and in my spare time (there isn't too much of that) I look after my two grandchildren and enjoy walking, playing golf and going to the gym.

I moved to Camberley in 2010 and live within walking-distance of Kings. I have two children at the school, in Years 7 and 10.

contract management and personnel development.
I appreciate the considerable growth and performance enhancements recently achieved by the school, and believe my skills and experience will help staff, students and parents to embed the school at the heart of our local community.

Heather Caudle – Parent Governor
I joined Kings International College as a Parent governor in December 2020, inspired by the care and expertise my sons William, Year 11 and Kenny, Year 8 have both received from their teachers at Kings.
Alongside being a mother and wife, I am a chief nursing officer in the NHS and have been a Registered Mental Health Nurse for 25 years. Early in my career, I worked as an eating disorders nurse therapist and systemic family psychotherapist, as well as having worked at organisational, regional and national levels in the NHS. Prior to being trained as a nurse in this country, I was a teacher in a small rural, seaside village in the Caribbean, and this experience has contributed to my fruitful and fulfilling career.
I strive to tackle discriminatory practices in a way which is positive and improves people’s lives and with a strong focus on quality improvement as well as inclusive leadership. I am part of a national women’s network, the Shuri Network, as a steering group member, the aim of which is to increase the gender and ethnic diversity in health technology leadership.
I am excited to be a part of the leadership community of educators, governors and future-shapers at Kings and look forward to contributing to the governance of the organisation.

Paul Jackson – Co-Opted Governor
I enjoy all forms of sport and have played rugby to a good level. Unfortunately, age and injury has enforced retirement from playing. I now coach my son’s rugby team and passionately watch and follow Harlequins and England rugby teams. Retirement has also meant I have taken up cycling, yes I'm a MAMIL!
Motorsport has always interested me and I have been lucky enough to attend the Le Mans 24Hr race; a must for all motorsport enthusiasts.
My family and I enjoy camping holidays as often as we can, I was heavily involved with the scouting movement as a young person and the enjoyment of being outdoors has never left.
I would like to bring my experience of working in many different schools and Alternative Provision to Kings International in order to better the lives of the students at the school.

Owen Gardner - Local Authority Governor
I joined the Governing Body at Kings in December 2021 having been inspired by the tour for prospective parents for my sons. I am currently Chair of Governors at their current school in Farnborough, and enjoy being able to contribute to the schools development and successes, leveraging my skills and experience in business development and transformation with Salesforce. Any spare time I have left over from work and Governorship is spent at the gym, cooking, and spending time in the woodland we own near Pirbright.
I am hugely excited about the journey the school is going on, and very much looking forward to being part of the team going forwards.

June Phillips – Co-Opted Governor
I am married with two children and four grandchildren and have lived and worked in the Frimley/Camberley area since 1978. I retired from teaching three years ago, having taught Science (main subject Physics) for 28 years. During that time I held a variety of responsibility posts both pastoral and academic. I have a particular interest in teaching and learning. I have been involved in voluntary work since moving to the area in 1978 and currently assist with a local group ‘Activity Xtra’, which works to improve the social lives of adults with learning difficulties. I also act as treasurer for the Camberley Diamond Women’s Institute.
Becoming a governor will give me an opportunity to use my past experience to support the community in which I live and help Kings International fulfil their aspirations for the whole school community, which are so evident when visiting the school.

Vivienne Morell - Staff Governor
I am Head of Maths at Kings and provide a staff insight into discussions within the governing body and believe wholeheartedly in the vision at Kings.
Bindi Sarl – Co-Opted Governor
I am an ex local authority employee who is now seconded to SAFE. I was the school improvement partner for Kings and have agreed to take on the role of Governor at Kings. I was a teacher for 26 years and have worked within school improvement for 11 years.
Kel Finan-Cooke – Community Governor
I am mum to four rambunctious children, one of whom has now finished her education with Kings, two of whom are still attending the college and one who looks forward to being old enough to attend.
I am a local campaigner and activist with a passion for community, equality and equity, which is exactly why I became a governor, to be a part of a school right at the heart of my community.
I run a childcare business with my wife, Lisa and also hold various community positions such as; Head of Communications for Pride in Surrey, Diversity Officer for Surrey Heath Liberal Democrats, Chair of Save Watchmoor Nature Reserve and sit on the committee for organisations such as Camberley Rotary Club, Watchetts Community Garden and was recently Co-ordinator for Surrey Heath Prepared during the lockdown stages of the Covid-19 pandemic.
I believe that an excellent all round education, factoring in the whole person as well as the skills and knowledge is the key to creating the next generation of leaders and change makers and am hugely proud to be able to contribute to this.
