Governing Body
School Governors are people from the school’s community who wish to make a positive contribution to children’s education.
Governors are the largest volunteer force in the county and play an important part in raising school standards through their three key roles of:
- Setting strategic direction
- Ensuring accountability
- Monitoring and evaluating school performance.
