Our Governors

The Governing Body plays a key role in helping oversee the strategic direction of  the school. They do not manage the school – this is the role of the headteacher and senior leadership team, but they do oversee the development  of the school – their main aim being to always provide a high standard of  education for all pupils, of all abilities.
  
The governing body has three main roles:-
  
Strategic The  governing body sets  the general direction of the school, looking at how it  should best develop. This is done by reviewing and agreeing policies, targets  and priorities and monitoring and reviewing aims and objectives. Strategic  thinking is not always linked with the curriculum and it does not mean just  responding to weakness.
 
Critical Friend  The governing body works with the headteacher and creates a clear understanding of the challenges faced in managing the school. The governing body is able to question and challenge. We  have a good working relationship so this is accepted and seen to be positive. Real critical friendship is only achieved where there is trust and mutual respect.
 
Accountability The school is a business and its stakeholders are the learners. The governing body has a professional attitude and uses its collective skills to benefit the learners. It gathers   views, ask questions and decides what is best for the school. The governing body  is answerable to the parents and the wider community.
