Our Governors

Our Governing Board takes a full part in the life of the school. The Governors bring to their role a wide breadth of interest, experience and expertise. Our school is committed to having an active board that is diverse and inclusive and reflective of the community we serve. More information is available upon request from the school office.  Most Governors are elected every 4 years and represent the Local Authority, parents, community, teachers and support staff. In order to adequately fulfil their roles, an additional subcommittee has been created:
