GOVERNORS

Governors are like a Board of Directors and make decisions about how the school is run.  They meet at least twice a term at school and parents are welcome to come along and listen to what goes on.

Governors are appointed to help:

• Decide what will be taught
• Set standards of behaviour
• Interview and select staff
• Decide how the school budget is spent

School Governors have legal duties, powers and responsibilities.  They can only act together, they cannot act individually.

School Governors are:

• Parents
• Staff in the School
• Local Council Representatives
• Community Representatives

Parent Governors:

• Have a child in school
• Are elected by parents of the school
• Serve, as do other Governors, for four years

Governors can be contacted through the school office on 01922 857005.
