Governors Meetings
Our governing body consists of up to sixteen members, including the head teacher. Governors are representatives from the staff – both teaching and non-teaching, parents and the community.
The Governing Body meets twice each term to discuss issues relating to standards (at a School Improvement focus meeting) and resources (at a finance and premises focus meeting).
