GOVERNORS OF THE SCHOOL
We are very fortunate to be supported by the following governors, some of whom have many years experience in the role. The governing body meet regularly to discuss various items in order to improve our school and provide the best for our children. The full governing body meet throughout the year as a collective. Alongside this, the Curriculum Committee and the Staffing, Finance and Premises Committee also meet. These committees then feed back to the full governing body on a regular basis.
Our Curriculum committee discuss all aspects of the school curriculum, such as what is taught to the children and also, how we assess them. They make decisions on funding for new initiatives and resources for the children.
Our Staffing, Finance and Premises committee are responsible for making financial decisions regarding staffing at the school. They also ensure that school monies are used to improve the school environment to make it a place where our children and staff enjoy attending.
