Governor Profiles
Dave Sweeney
I was the Corporate Change Manager at Produban UK, a wholly owned subsidiary of Santander UK. My responsibility is to ensure standardised methods, processes and procedures which are used for all IT Infrastructure and Software changes, facilitate efficient and prompt handling of all changes, and maintain the proper balance between the need for change and the potential detrimental impact of changes.
I started working for Girobank in 1977 and have seen many changes in IT on the Bootle site in the last 40 years. I had staff across two sites, here in Bootle and in Carlton Park, Leicester.
I started as a governor at Litherland Moss in September 2002 and I am currently Chair of Governors. My chief motivation is to try and ensure that every child is able achieve their full potential and leave our school confident and well prepared for the next stage in their education.

Michael Baker
I qualified as a primary school teacher in 2013 and since then I have worked in schools in Leeds, London and across the North West. Having worked as a primary school teacher for over 10 years, I have gained a great deal of experience in both designing and delivering the primary curriculum across a wide range of subjects. Since joining Litherland Moss in 2019, I have worked as a KS2 teacher, curriculum lead and a member of the middle and senior leadership teams. In my current role as deputy head of the school, I am well-placed as a staff governor to make a positive contribution to the overall mission of our school and ensure that this is being implemented and monitored effectively.
Governor Committees 2024-2025
In the academic year 2024-2025, there were no committees of the governing body.
The full governing board sits six times during the academic year and has a role in quality assuring the work of the school leadership team.
