Academy Council

I am a member of the Academy Council in my role as Head Teacher of West Ashton CE Primary School.  I joined West Ashton in April 2018 as the Year 3/4/5 class teacher.  I then taught Year 5/6 until I became the Head.   

I am a mum of four children who are all in higher or further education currently.   In my spare time I am an avid reader and traveller.

I am a Foundation governor and joined the Academy Council in Autumn 2018. In January 2019 I became Co-Chair. I am a retired Army Officer and live in Warminster which is where my three children went to school. I was closely involved with my children's secondary school both as Chair of the Parents' Association and assisting them to set up and run a mentoring programme for sixth former's and am enjoying the new challenges associated with assisting at the primary level of education. Although West Ashton has been through some tough times recently, it is now developing rapidly and I am very pleased to be able to play a small part in helping the school to achieve success and reach its full potential.

Hello.

My name is Natasha Bristow and since June 2024 I have been a Foundation Governor at West Ashton school.  I have been a volunteer mentor in several local schools including West Ashton for a number of years. As a practising Christian, I believe that each person is precious and unique in the eyes of God.  

My role is to provide a link between school and church community . Having spent time in the school , I can confirm that the values and vision of the school are evident amongst the staff and pupils .  I always appreciate the warm and welcoming atmosphere whenever I am in the school. I am excited to be a governor and hopefully to enhance the existing team. 

I am married and have twins that are 20 years old.   I love cycling outdoors and travel .
