Ms M Nickells

My main role on the Colyton Grammar School Board is as the Chair of the Finance and Resources Group. I am a Chartered Accountant and Managing Partner at a local accountancy firm, specialising in academy school finance and statutory audits. As well as being an auditor for academy school accounts, I also advise academy trusts on governance, financial systems and controls. My son has been a pupil at Colyton Grammar School for the past 6 years, so I have a personal connection to the school. My role on the board enables me to use my professional experience working with other academy trusts to benefit an exceptional local school.
