Co-opted Governor

I am an old Helian who studied at St Peters. I studied English Law at University but unfortunately did not complete the course. My interests include the progress of children in education and their well-being.

I am a restaurant chef. I came 2nd in a chef competition at the Houses of Parliament. My restaurant has been voted the best Indian restaurant in the South West. I have held 3 directorships for local businesses.

I am also an amateur actor and have been involved in a number of Shakespeare performances. I also enjoy reading, walking and work.

Nick Bruce-White

Parent Governor

Nick, Catriona and their daughter moved to Exeter ten years ago, not far from Isca Academy, where their daughter is now in year 8. 

Nick has enjoyed a career working for environmental charities and is currently Chief Executive of Devon Wildlife Trust. He is passionate about restoring the natural environment and recovering nature in Devon, not only for the sake of threatened wildlife but also for the enormous health & wellbeing benefits which derive from people’s connection with nature and the outdoors. 

 

Nick hopes that his experience of organisational governance and leadership can support the parents, pupils and staff at Isca to create the very best school experience in Exeter. He has a specific interest in wellbeing and resilience, and how organisations keep people well in the face of the intense, complex demands of modern society. 

Nick is a keen marathon runner and as a family they spend most of their spare time in the great outdoors, enjoying the wild landscapes of the South West and beyond.
