Mick Norton

Mick is the IT & Learning Resources Manager at the College. He is also a qualified teacher. He was appointed as a Staff Governor following an election amongst Business Support Staff in September 2022. He wants to promote positive change throughout the College, to ensure staff feel that they have an approachable voice, and to use his background in IT to come up with efficient solutions to discussions.

As a member of the IT Team, he believes he gets a wide view of different departments / opinions / issues which he feels would be beneficial as a Staff Governor. He prides himself on being able to find a solution to problems raised, using data to back up decisions, and using reflective practice to ensure that decisions made are the correct ones. As a Staff Governor he wants to ensure that the work that IT does is fed into governors’ decisions, enabling planning to match the needs and demands of Leeds College of Building.
