What do they do?
The Board of Governors play a crucial role in the life of any school. They should provide:
- Strategic Management;
- Constructive challenge; and
- Accountability
All school Governors are appointed on a voluntary, unpaid capacity.
Governors should assist the Principal with the smooth running and effective organisation of the school. They monitor the outcomes of our pupils and hold all staff to account.
Governors assist the Principal in setting and agreeing the priorities for development within the school, these are contained in the School Development Plan. Governors also monitor how key leaders work towards achieving these targets and goals.
Governors also monitor the financial expenditure of the school.

How do I contact the Governors?
In general, parents would usually approach the Governors via the Principal. Your first port of call for most issues in school will naturally be the class teacher.
If you wish to raise a concern or a complaint it is important you follow the Complaints Procedure as set out by the school.
Many Governors, especially the Chairperson and Parent Representatives are in and about school on a regular basis.
