- The Governors work closely with the Headteacher and staff in order to ensure that the school’s objectives can be met.
- The Governing Body consists of the Headteacher, parents, members nominated by the Local Authority, Community Governors and representatives of the teaching and support staff of the school.
- Meetings of the full Governing Body are usually held every half term and sub-committees also meet regularly.
- Parent Governors are appointed as a result of nominations and elections in which all parents are eligible to stand and vote. One of their particular responsibilities is to provide a viewpoint from that of ‘parent’ to the Governing Body.
- If Parents wish to contact a Governor they may write, in confidence, addressed c/o the school.
