Aldborough Academy Governce

ABU TOKI

I have worked in primary schools across various boroughs in London. My first senior leadership role was in 2017, in a inner London school. I then joined The Loxford Trust in 2019 as an Assistant Headteacher. Following this, in 2022, I was appointed as Deputy Headteacher across both Loxford and Aldborough Primary School, with a specific focus on Quality of Education.

I am now the Headteacher of Aldborough Primary School- a role which I feel privileged to have. This role allows me to build resilient pupils who become life long learners.

I have been a committee member at Aldborough Primary for about 5 years and have recently been appointed to Chair.  I have lived in Redbridge for 28 years.
I am a Key Account Director at a security company and well versed in security and H&S impacts on any business and property.

I have had 3 children attend Aldborough, 2 of whom are now in secondary school and 1 still at Aldborough Primary. My aim is to ensure that our children get the best education, that the staff are supported in achieving the best potential within all the children, and also make them feel safe and secure.

I have been a Civil servant for nearly 29 years working for the Court Service, Ministry of Justice, and Home Office and for the last 9 years at the Department for Education. My roles at the Department for Education have included working with Government Offices and Local Authority Parenting Leads supporting parents and children to achieve better outcomes. My current role is a Project Manager for the Standards & Testing Agency who develop the Tests for KS1 and KS2.

I have grown up in Redbridge and with my son starting school in September 2016 I’m glad to be given the opportunity to be An Academy Committee Member to support the school in maintaining its high standards and to meet future challenges.

I am a senior manager within a large London NHS Trust. Prior to the NHS I worked within the Health and Social Care sector supporting both adults and young people. I am an effective leader who has the ability to build relationships on a multidisciplinary level. I have good listening skills, am able to express my views and opinions and am comfortable in the role of a facilitator to support resolution or achieve a common goal. With my son recently starting in reception I am keen to play a role in supporting positive outcomes for all students at Aldborough Primary School.

SHAISTA KHAN

I am a mother of 3 daughters and 1 son, who all attend Aldborough Primary School.  

From the time when my eldest, who is now 11 years of age, started school I have been fascinated by how the school teaching together with the environment has a positive impact. In particular, the way it has been designed and refined to teach as well as stimulate a child from the very start. 

After spending many years as a full-time mother, I am hoping to work within a school organisation as a teaching assistant, as this is where my interest lies. Previously I worked within administrative roles for different organisations, including a fostering agency where I was team administrator. 

I will appreciate and value the chance to experience the role of Parent Governor, as I feel this role will give myself a better understanding of how Aldborough Primary School functions and the current issues being worked on.

I hope I am given this opportunity to play a more active role within Aldborough Primary and be able to give back to the school community!

My long-term employment with the Trust provides me with valuable insights into the school's culture, values, and needs. This experience positions me well to continue making meaningful contributions to both the school and the Trust as a whole.

By leveraging my understanding, I can help identify areas for improvement, support initiatives, and foster a strong community that benefits both students and staff. My dedication to the Trust's mission will undoubtedly enhance the overall educational experience.
