Mr Cameron Porteous - Parent Governor (Chair)
My wife Hannah and I moved to Dilton Marsh 4 years ago to settle down with our family. My eldest has just started at Dilton Marsh Primary school and I hope that his younger brother and sister will follow over the next 2 years. I am a Weapons Engineer Officer in the Royal Navy Submarine Service and have served for 17 years. Last year I left a nuclear submarine based in Scotland where I was head of the Weapons Engineering Department, to start a new role in the Navy’s Operational Headquarters in London. Prior to this I worked in the Ministry of Defence in the Defence Nuclear Organisation. My background is engineering, however I have recently completed a post graduate diploma in strategic leadership and management as a precursor to progressing onto an MBA next year. I’m very excited to join as a parent governor and give back something to a community that has been so welcoming.

Mr David Blake - Parent Governor
I grew up in Dilton Marsh, moving away for university and work, and recently coming back to Wiltshire with my family. My eldest is at Dilton Marsh School and loves it. I currently work part time in IT, and part time farming – a nice variation, especially when the weather is highly unpredictable!
