Hilary Belden is the Bishop of Willesden’s representative on the William Perkin Governing Body. She is also a Director of the Twyford CofE Academies Trust. Hilary is an experienced teacher who has served in comprehensive schools in four London boroughs; she was Deputy Head of Twyford CofE High School from 1986 to1997 and then Head of Glenthorne High School in Sutton. Returning to Ealing, she ran the programme for primary to secondary transition across all Ealing schools. Because of this, she represented the Twyford Directors on the Academy Reference Group which campaigned and planned for William Perkin. Returning to William Perkin now, she says, ‘is an honour and a pleasure. I am a strong believer in a secondary school’s power to create opportunities for all its students and families. William Perkin, as a Church School with its open admissions and deep practical commitment to Christian ideals, is in a great position. I look forward to serving the community here in the coming years.’
