The role of our Governors is valued and welcomed by our school. All Governors are volunteers and we appreciate the time they give to work with us to continually develop our school.  In addition to their roles on committees (see table below), they undertake monitoring visits regularly.  During these visits they observe specific aspects of the day to day running of our school, talk to staff and pupils and share their observations at committee meetings and discuss these with school leaders.

Register of Governors' Business and Personal Interests

The Governing Body of each school is required by regulations made under the School Standards and Framework Act 1998 to establish a register which lists for each member of the Governing Body and the Headteacher, any business or personal interests they or any member of their immediate family have which could conflict with the school’s interests; to keep the register up to date with notification of changes and through annual review of entries, and to make the register available for inspection by governors, staff, parents and the Director’s of Education and Finance or their representative.

All governors have completed the relevant paperwork confirming they do NOT have any business or personal interests that conflict their role.
