Governance

Our school is supported and challenged by a Governing Board, which works with the Headteacher and Leadership team.  Our Governors are an elected committee, consisting of staff, parents and community/local authority representatives. The Governing Board has a responsibility to work with the school as a critical friend and to hold the school to account for the standards and quality of education it achieves. The Full Governing Board meet termly and has two committees, who also meet termly (the Curriculum & Community Links Committee and the Finance, Personnel & Premises Committee). As a relatively small governing board all members sit on both committees.
