Governors

The role of the Governing Board is to act as a critical friend to the school and to ensure that it carries out its statutory responsibilities.  The Governing Board is responsible for setting the school budget, approving policies, monitoring performance, and along with the Head Teacher, for setting the strategic direction of the school and raising standards of achievement. 

Governors are appointed by the Local Authority and by the Church (Foundation Governors) and can also be members of the local community.  A number of staff and parents are elected onto the Governing Body for a period of four years service, after which time they can stand for re-election.
