Our People

Our People

Saint Felix has an exceptional team of dedicated, nurturing professionals; teachers who provide the educational excellence that propels students towards success, and a team of support staff who ensure the day-to-day running of our wonderful school.

Senior Leadership Team

Saint Felix School’s Senior Leadership Team (SLT) consists of staff members directly involved in our school’s strategic development and operation. The Chair is the Head who, along with the SLT, is responsible for the academic and pastoral outcomes for students, as well as all operational and HR matters.

Heads of School

Our Advisory Board

Saint Felix’s Advisory Board is composed of individuals from both within the Inspired Learning Group (ILG) team and those with connections to our school. Their responsibilities align with standard Board of Governors’ functions encompassing the school’s vision, ethos, and strategic direction. The Board also establishes and reviews policies and procedures – ensuring leadership accountability for school management, educational provision, and compliance with legal and DfE requirements.

Additionally, the Board contributes to inspections, monitors and evaluates performance to enhance standards, ensures students’ welfare and pastoral care, supports leaders, and provides recommendations to the Proprietor, always prioritising the school’s best interests with integrity and objectivity. The SLT reports to the Board periodically through formal meetings and regular contact with the Chair and other members of the ILG executive team. To ensure complete governance, the Board operates through two committees, Education and Compliance, both of which feed into a Full Board, thus providing a comprehensive approach to direct our school’s success and growth.
