Governors

A warm welcome to the Governors page of our website.

The Governing body is a team of volunteers that have the important job of looking at the overall direction of the school. It is made up of representatives from the Local Education Authority, the community, members of staff and elected parents.

Our school is a vibrant and exciting place and the Governors, like the staff, are professional, committed and keen to ensure that every child reaches their full potential.

Governors act as ‘critical friends’ of the school, supporting the Head teacher and staff. They monitor and evaluate the school to ensure that best practice is always followed and help to create a safe learning environment that delivers the best possible education to all our pupils.
