Benjamin Opoku
Member of Full Governing Board and Resources and Teaching & Learning Committees.
Elected by parents, 2020-2024.
I was elected as governor of St Mary’s Hampton School in November 2020. I have been a parent at the school since 2017 and currently have 2 children who both attend the school.
I currently work at the Local Council and as project manager. I have a varied background in practising Law. I volunteer for the Richmond legal advice service where I provide free legal advice on matters such as Contract, Immigration and Criminal law. I enjoy spending most of my spare time with my wife and our two children (aged 6 and 10). My interests vary, but I enjoy playing the Cello with my eldest son and watching movies and outdoors activities with my family and friends.
I am deeply committed to ensuring that all children regardless of their ability are motivated and encouraged towards their full potential and are given the opportunities to develop meaningful skills that will benefit them in their journey through the educational system and equip them to progress beyond the school.
