Who are the school governors and what do we do?
The school’s governors are a group of volunteers including parents, staff and members of the local community. We meet once or twice a term and work closely with the Headteacher to support the school.
The Governing board ensures clarity of vision, ethos and strategic direction, and robust accountability, oversight and assurance for educational and financial performance of our School.
Within the governing body we have three committees which meet each term and concentrate their discussions around a particular area of responsibility. These committees are Curriculum, Personnel and Finance & Premises/Health & Safety.
