Governors play a key role in working with the Headteacher and staff to raise standards in all areas of school life. Governors bring a range of experiences and skills and we are fortunate to have an active Governing Body, committed to its role.
Our Governors work as two committees – the Personnel and Curriculum Committee and the Finance and Buildings Committee. Meetings are held every half term with the full Governing Body meeting each term. Additionally, there are visits to the school by individual Governors.
