Our Governing Body
The school's Governing body is made up from various members of the community, who have a wide range of skills, knowledge and experience. The Governors work collectively to support the school and participate in decisions that directly affect the education and well-being of the children. The Headteacher is ultimately responsible for the day-to-day management of the school and implementation of policies. The Governors assist the Headteacher and staff by monitoring and keeping under review the broad policies, plans and procedures within which the school operates.
Each Governor is a member of a sub-committee, that meet separately once a term to oversee specific areas within the school. Governors will need to attend their sub-committee meetings as well as the Full Governing Body meetings that take place once a term. Our sub-committees are: Resources and Management and Teaching and Learning. A Governor's term of office lasts for four years and during this time they attend six meetings annually.
