Governors

Welcome to our Governors’ section.

Please find below details of how our Governing body is structured, including the names, categories, responsibilities and terms of appointment for each Governor.

The role of our school governors is to work closely with the school to ensure that it delivers high quality education for every child. They provide strategic direction and ensure accountability through a number of duties and responsibilities;

Setting and monitoring the school's aims and policies
Determining how the school's budget is spent
Setting standards for pupils' behaviour and discipline
The appointing and dismissing of staff
Hearing appeals and grievances
Making sure school buildings are welcoming and safe

The full governing body meets once a term and our sub committees (Curriculum and Attainment Committee & Finance Committee) meet more regularly. Our governors also frequently visit the school for observations and special occasions such as assemblies, plays and presentations.

Our governors come from all sections of the community and all walks of life; we have parents, staff, residents from the local community and representatives from the local education authority (LEA). No specific qualifications are required to be a governor, however you do need to be over 18 and pass a formal check of your suitability within the school. What is important is that you have energy, enthusiasm, time and a real desire to help provide children with the best possible education.
