The role of Governors
​
All state maintained primary, secondary and special schools, are accountable to their governing bodies, which in turn
are accountable to parents and the community.
There are parent, staff and community representatives on our governing body as well as governors appointed by the local authority. Governing bodies make decisions which are in the best interests of our pupils. Keeping the decision-making as close as possible to those that are affected by the decisions makes for sound and efficient leadership and governance. Our governing body structure has only one committee (for Pay and Personnel decisions). Other matters are covered by lead governors and panel members as shown in the grid below.
