The governing body is made up of volunteers from different groups of stakeholders of the school (parents, staff, community and local authority) who are elected. The role of the governing body is to support the leadership team by determining, monitoring and reviewing the broad policies, plans and procedures within which the school operates.

Our Role

The main purpose of the governors is to help the school ensure the provision of high standards of teaching and learning, by setting the school's strategic direction and setting targets for school improvement. The governors also provide challenge for school improvement and keep the school under review whilst being a critical friend, offering support and advice.
