What We Do
We have a strong focus on three core strategic functions:
- Ensuring clarity of vision, ethos and strategic direction
- Holding the Headteacher to account for the educational performance of the school and its pupils
- Overseeing the financial performance of the school and making sure its money is well spent
Governors have a range of duties and powers to challenge and support the school to deliver high standards of educational achievement. This includes:
- helping set aims and objective for the school
- adopting policies and setting targets for achieving those aims and objectives
- ensuring accountability
- monitoring and evaluating school performance
- overseeing the management of school finances
- making sure the curriculum is balanced and broadly based and the learning environment is safe
- appointing the Headteacher and reviewing the Headteacher’s performance.
