Our governors are volunteers and parents, professionals and members of the community who are responsible for the long term strategic direction of the school.
Our governing body has a Full Governing Body committee which all governors are required to attend and the following sub-committees:
External Review of Governance - Autumn 2020
Following an action point in our Autumn 2018 OFSTED Report, the governing body worked with National Leader of Governance, Hanif Asmal, who conducted an External Review of the governance of our school. The review took place between the Spring and Autumn 2019. Work was delayed due to the Covid-19 pandemic and the national lockdown, but the report was produced and presented to the governing body at the end of October 2020.
