Governance

Our Governing Body consists of current and past parents, staff members and external individuals, all with a passion for seeking to develop our school. They meet each half term to discuss the school action plan and to monitor safeguarding, finances and implementation of policies. Our Governors are keen to be involved in school life through visits, assemblies and events.
