The work of a school governor can be an extremely rewarding role.
Collectively, governors form the corporate body referred to as the Governing Committee/Local School Body. It has a key role in ensuring that our children are attending a good and successful school. Its principal functions include:
- Setting the strategic direction of the school.
- Challenging and supporting the school by monitoring, reviewing and evaluating policies and performance.
- Ensuring and promoting accountability.
- Appointing and performance managing the Headteacher.
The Governing Committee is comprised of 7 governors:
- 2 Parent Governors,
- 5 Co-opted Trust Governors
If you are interested in becoming a governor, and want to know more please contact the school.
You don’t have to have a child attending the school to apply.
You don’t need previous knowledge or experience – training is given.
What you do need is drive, enthusiasm, some spare time and a commitment to giving children the best start possible in becoming life long learners.
