Governors
The Governing Body are the strategic leaders of our school and have a vital role to play in making sure every child gets the best possible education.
Their purpose, reflected in the law, is to ‘conduct the school with a view to promoting high standards of educational achievement at the school’. They have a strong focus on three core strategic functions:
- Ensuring clarity of vision, ethos and strategic direction;
- Holding the headteacher to account for the educational performance of the school and its pupils, and the performance management of staff; and
- Overseeing the financial performance of the school and making sure its money is well spent.
- We are fortunate to have a strong Governing Body who are committed and work with staff to ensure that all learners achieve and fulfil their potential.
Chair of Governors
Our current Acting Chair of Governors is Mrs Joanne Smith who can be contacted via the school.
