Governors Information and Duties

ย 

GOVERNORS

School Governors are members of the school's Governing Body. They have responsibility for raising school standards through their three key roles of setting strategic direction, ensuring accountability and monitoring & evaluating school performance.

The Governors have two Committees:

The committees and Full Governing Body meet at regular intervals through the school year.

Members of the Senior Leadership Team also attend committee and Full Governorsโ€™ meetings and the governors may invite any other person to attend their meetings where there is a clear rationale and purpose for their attendance. For example report to governors on specific areas.

CONTACTING THE GOVERNORS

The normal channels for parent consultation with school are through the Headteacher or their representative, although in most cases parents should contact the Form Tutor or Head of House in the first instance. Governors can make themselves available for consultation with parents if required but it is normally advisable to ensure that matters requiring the attention of the governors are first taken up through normal channels within the school.
