Governing Body
The Governing Body has one LA Representative Governor, five elected Parent Governors, twelve co-opted Governors and two Staff Governors (including the Headteacher).
The Governors’ role is to vouch for the safe strategic direction of the school, as well as to ensure that there is due regard of process in the school’s daily actions. Between them, Governors bring a wide variety of expertise from their professional lives. They provide an immense service in directing the school strategically.
The Governors and Headteacher now have greatly increased responsibilities and powers. Complaints, in the first instance, should be referred to the Headteacher. Matters which remain unresolved will then be referred to the Chair of Governors.
The school presently has TWO vacant Parent Governor vacancies to fill. Please see the documents at the bottom of this page for more information.
