Governance Statement 2020 – 2021
The Governing Board has three core functions, as set out in the Department for Education’s Governors’ Handbook:
- Ensuring clarity of vision, ethos and strategic direction
- Holding the Headteacher to account for the educational performance of the school
- Ensuring financial health, probity and value for money
We have regular full governor meetings and two sub committees:
- Resources
- This committee focuses on health and safety, staffing and budget
- Standards and Effectiveness
- This committee focuses on data around results, curriculum, Teaching and Learning and the School Development Plan
