Governing Body

The role of the governing board is a strategic one with three key functions:

1. Overseeing the financial performance of the school and making sure its money is well spent
2. Holding the headteacher to account for the educational performance of the school and its pupils
3. Ensuring clarity of vision, ethos and strategic direction

The full governing body meets at least 3 times per year. The committee meetings are where the main work of the governing body is carried out.

Committees
