School Governors

School Governors are people who wish to make a positive contribution to children’s education. They will contribute to the effective day-to-day running of the school and have an effective input toward the educational achievement of all pupils.

The Governing Body consists of people from the school’s community. Every school’s governing body has parents, school staff and representatives of the Local Authority.

Governors take responsiblity for all the learning opportunities that pupils experience including spiritual, moral, social and cultural development. The Governors must also decide a curriculum policy for the school which takes account of the Local Authority’s policy, the National Curriculum and technological advances. Governors keep abreast of national and local initiatives and make any adjustments to the curriculum to ensure that the curriculum prepares the children for the world they will live in as adults in the 21st century
