Both schools are providing an outstanding educational experience for your children and we are going to do everything in our power to make that continue. As a teacher myself I will never forget how influential the early years of school experience can be in providing a solid grounding for young people\u2019s futures which go with them in everything they do in their lives.<\/p>\n<p>It is our mission to ensure that not only do your children excel academically but enjoy the experience and having seen the enthusiasm and happy faces of the children at concerts and school fayres, sports events etc &nbsp;it is evident that this is happening and we will ensure that continues.<\/p>\n<p>The future is bright for both schools and we want you as parents to enjoy the journey as much as your children do so help and support us in our drive to continually improve the educational experience your children receive at our two great schools.<\/p>\n<p>Rest assured every decision made within school is done for the benefit of the children in our care.<\/p>\n<p>Thank you,<\/p>\n<p>Colin Reid<\/p>\n<p>Chair of Governors &amp; Safeguarding Governor<\/p>\n<p><strong>Further information about our Local Governing Body can be found below:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.hartelwickfederation.org.uk\/hart\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/09\/Local-Governing-Body-Aug-2025-2.pdf\">Local Governing Body Members<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/get-information-schools.service.gov.uk\/Establishments\/Establishment\/Details\/145813#school-governance\">Information about Governors Past and Present<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.hartelwickfederation.org.uk\/hart\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/08\/Governors-Attendance-2024-2025-18.06.25.pdf\">LGB Meeting Attendance 2024-2025<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.hartelwickfederation.org.uk\/hart\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2026\/02\/Hart-LGB-Meeting-Attendance-2025-2026.pdf\">LGB Meeting Attendance 2025-2026<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.hartelwickfederation.org.uk\/hart\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2026\/01\/Governor_Business_Interests_Aug-2025.docx\">Register of LGB Business Interests<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/northernlights.education\/nllt\/governance-documents-and-financial-information\/\">NLLT Governance &amp; Financial Information<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/northernlights.education\/nllt\/governance-documents-and-financial-information\/\">NLLT Scheme of Delegation<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/northernlights.education\/nllt\/governance-documents-and-financial-information\/\">NLLT Annual Report<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n<h1 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Local Governing Body Contact<\/h1>\n\n\n\n<p>Please direct any written correspondence to:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Chair of Governors \u2013 Mr Colin Reid<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>C\/O Hart Primary School&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Magdalene Drive<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Hart Village<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Hartlepool<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>TS27 3AP<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Information about the structure and remit of the members, board of trustees, committees and local governing bodies of the Northern Lights Learning Trust can be found at  <a href=\"https:\/\/northernlights.education\/nllt\/board-of-trustees\/\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/northernlights.education\/nllt\/board-of-trustees\/\">https:\/\/northernlights.education\/nllt\/board-of-trustees\/<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Dear Parents, Just a brief message to say how honoured we are as a governing body to be able to support your children in their futures.
