Governors

Our Full Governorning Body meet at least twice per term and attend a further termly meeting to facilitate training and professional development. Our Governors provide a strategic view of our school and seeks to continuously review the broad framework within which the Headteacher and his staff run the school. The focus is on:

  • Raising standards of achievement
  • Promoting effective teaching and learning.

Our governors:

  • Act as a critical friend by giving advice and support and fostering good relationships.
  • Ask challenging questions and strive for improvements.
  • Ensure accountability by setting out the overall aims and conduct for the school.
  • Amend and approve  policies and plans to support the school in meeting its aims.

The Headteacher and the staff report to the governors on the school performance. Proposals are discussed, questioned and refined, with regard to the professional roles of staff and their day to day responsibilities within the school.
