School Governors

Our governors ensure that the school fulfils its statutory duties, delivers its shared vision and strategy and provides a quality education to all children.  They hold leaders to account over the effective use of the school budget / resources. Attendance at meetings is good and there are strong links with teaching staff.  The school’s strategic calendar provides opportunities for governor colleagues to visit and undertake link activities. 

March 2025: We currently have 3 governor vacancies for parent govenors.
