Pascal van Loon - Chair

I am a Chartered Chemical Engineer working in business development for an industrial gases company in Surrey. As STEM Ambassador (Science, Technology, Engineering and Maths), I have visited many local schools to provide science demonstrations and attend career fairs. I mentor graduates in our company, as well as A Level students for the Social Mobility Foundation. Since 2015, I have been a Governor at a local Primary school, and I am using this experience as a Parent Governor at Glyn School. From September 2021, both my sons will be attending Glyn School, so I will be connected to the school for quite a few years to come. |

As a previous student and Head Girl of Rosebery School, I became an SSB Member at Glyn School as a way of giving back what was given to me throughout my time in education. Having trained as a scientist, I went to work in politics for five years after graduating as an advisor to local and national Politicians. I recently started my own business, the UK's first ever think tank focused on policy solutions to improve the lives of disabled people. I am looking forward to being able to contribute what I can to the students and staff at Glyn School in my capacity as an SSB Member. |

I have 18 years commercial experience across the retail sector as a Senior Buyer and also from the FMCG sector (fast moving consumer goods) in both Sales and a Shopper Marketing perspective. These roles have provided me with financial acumen, leadership experience, people management and strategic analysis experience. More personally, my husband is James, we live in Ewell and have 3 young children, at a local GLF primary school. I have always been a firm believer in the importance of a great education and I decided to become a SSB member as a way to give back to my local community, of which Glyn School plays a huge part. I look forward to contributing my time and knowledge to support staff, parents and students across the school. |

I am an experienced learning and development professional with 18 years’ experience of working in central government (including overseas). Working in a complex and ever-changing environment has deepened many of my skills, particularly those in leadership, people management, problem-solving, prioritisation, and creativity. As well as a huge passion for learning, I bring a real desire to support our community and the education of our next generation. I am therefore delighted to be joining the SSB for Glyn, which I know to be a truly excellent school with a genuine commitment to ensuring all pupils have access to an outstanding education. I have particular interests in SEN, but I am very much looking forward to learning all about Glyn and its students, staff and wider community. I am married to Paul, and we have a daughter currently in year 7 at Rosebery. We also have a mud-obsessed cockapoo called Violet. I am also one of social secretaries for the local Epsom Allsorts ladies run club. |
