Governor Information & Duties

Besides the Full Governing Body there are several separate committees which scrutinise termly in more detail the school’s finance and resources, Learning & Outcomes, and Safeguarding. There are other Committees which meet on an ad-hoc basis as required.
Outside of the formal committee meetings Governors visit classes and events, speak to staff and parents, attend training, receive reports and updates from the Headteacher and ensuring they know every aspect of the school. The Governors are supported in their work by the Clerk to Governors who attends the committee meetings in a non-voting capacity.
