Greg Sadler - Community Governor & Chair
My career spans twenty-seven years within education, bridging both the primary and secondary age ranges. I have a wealth of senior leadership experience across eight schools in a range of phases across Essex, Suffolk and Norfolk. I was a Headteacher for 13 years, and have experience of the strategic and operational running of multiple schools on multiple sites in different phases.
I now work as the EMAT Regional Director across the Breckland Hub. I have supported Norwich Road Academy over the past 3 years, and chair the Academy Council.

Sharon Scott - Clerk to the Governors
I joined EMAT in September 2015 and am Clerk to the Governors for six of the trust's academies. After completion of a BSc Business and Management Studies degree I then followed a career in the foodservice and food industry, which took me to senior management level. However, after having my son and becoming a farmer's wife, priorities changed!
A good education is one of the greatest gifts we can give our children, and I am proud to be a part of the team at Norwich Road Academy.
