Welcome to our Governors’ page!
The Governing Body has three core functions:
- Ensuring clarity of vision, ethos and direction
- Holding executive leaders to account for the educational performance of the organisation and its pupils, and the effective and efficient performance of staff
- Overseeing financial performance of the organisation and making sure its money is well spent.
