Board Members

2023-board-chair-richard-bath.jpg Mr Richard Bath - Chair 2023

I am a father of three daughters, two of whom recently graduated from John Forrest Secondary College and are now at university, and one daughter half-way through her secondary education at the college.

We have lived in this area for around 20 years, and I have a background in human resources, with the past 12 years spent working with Rio Tinto in their Perth office.

Having had a connection with the school since 2017, and joining the board in 2020, I am pleased to take on the additional role as chairperson in 2023.

As board chair, and an advocate for public education, I am keen to continue to build on the effectiveness of the board with the school executive to make JFSC a school of choice in our region.
