Governors

 

Our Governing Board channels the strategic vision and direction of the school, and is the employer of all staff.

The purpose of governance is to provide confident, strategic leadership and to create robust accountability, oversight and assurance for educational and financial performance.

The three core functions of the governing board: Ensuring clarity of vision, ethos and strategic direction; Holding executive leaders to account for the educational performance of the organisation and its pupils and the performance management of staff; Overseeing the financial performance of the organisation and making sure its money is well spent.

Register of Governor’s Business Interests

Under the County Council’s Financial Scheme, every governing body is required to establish and update a register of governors’ business interests.  This means that governors and headteachers must register and declare business interests that might relate to their duties.  The register was updated in the Autumn Term 2022. Following updates, any registers of interest are made public.
