The school governors meet once a term for a Full Governing Body meeting and in between for different committees. These are the standards and effectiveness committee and the resources committee. The committees discuss the school curriculum and assessment, the development of the school building and grounds, the school budget and staffing issues.
The role of the Governors is three-fold:
- To agree the strategic vision of the school
- To ensure the financial probity of the school
- To hold the Headteacher to account
