What our Governors do:  

Our governors are all volunteers drawn from the community, each bringing a range of skills, expertise and professional experience.  

Our governors work alongside the school to support and challenge to make sure our children receive the best education possible. They are involved in the full breadth of school life and meet regularly with the school’s leadership teams. 

Governors fulfil their responsibilities by: 

Holding the school’s leaders to account for the educational and financial performance of the school. Governors create robust accountability for the school’s leadership team through rigorous analysis of performance data and financial information. 

Setting the school’s vision and the strategy for achieving this vision. The school’s vision centres on pupil progress and achievement. Working with senior leaders, the governors agree key priorities and key performance indicators against which progress towards achieving the vision can be measured. 

Ensure the school’s financial success and probity. The governing board must ensure that the budget that the school receives is managed effectively, and with regard to value for money. 

Governors are appointed by the local authority except for parent governors, who are elected by parents and carers, and staff governors, who are elected by all school staff.
