Governors
Our Parent and Staff Governors are elected. The Headteacher has a standing post, co-opted governors are nominated and approved by the Governing Body for a term which lasts 4 years at a time. All Governors have signed a Register of Interests to indicate whether they have a potential conflict of interest and there are none other than as recorded.
If you are interested in becoming a governor please let us know.
The full governing body meets each term. There are two committees that also meet termly - Learning and Achievement and Resources Committees.
