School Governors
School governors play a vital role in the life of our school. Their duties include:
- setting the strategic direction, policies and objectives
- approving the budget
- reviewing progress against the budget and objectives
- challenging and supporting senior staff
- playing a part in appointing staff
The governing body in schools is made up of:
- staff representatives, including the headteacher
- community governors, including parents
- other local sponsors, like businesses
