The role of the Board of Governors is to make key strategic decisions for the school and to ensure that all statutory duties are met.
Governing bodies are made up of several categories of school governors who are elected or appointed in different ways. These include staff governors, parent governors, co-opted governors and local authority governors.
The full Governing body meets once every half term, which is six times each academic year. Additional meetings may be called if required.
Certain responsibilities are devolved to committees within the governing body. These committees monitor and discuss aspects of the school and report their findings to the full governing body.
The committees are currently as follows:
Pupils and Curriculum |
Paul Grigg, Eileen Asker(chair), Rachel Wiggins, Colleen Brown, Leanne Gelderd |
Premises/Health and Safety |
Paul Grigg, Leanne Gelderd, Helen Meynell, Laura Simpson, Jon Sayer (Chair), Graham Cripps (associate) |
