Samantha Townes

As Co-Headteacher of our vibrant Church of England primary school, I am incredibly proud of everything we achieve together for the children in our care. Our school is a place where every child is known, valued, and encouraged to flourish. I believe passionately in developing the whole child – nurturing not just academic achievement, but also confidence, creativity, kindness, and a strong sense of self.

At the heart of my educational philosophy is the belief that every child has unique strengths. My mission is to create an environment where each individual can shine, discover their potential, and grow into a respectful, thoughtful person who will go on to make a positive difference in the world.

Outside of school, I am a proud parent to two children – one currently in secondary school and the other still enjoying their time in primary. Family time is incredibly important to me. We love going on holidays, especially where there’s sunshine involved! I’m also a dedicated Macclesfield Football Club supporter, and Saturdays are often spent cheering on the team together – a highlight of our week.
