Welcome to our Governors’ section.
Please find below details of how our Governing body is structured, including the names, categories, responsibilities and terms of appointment for each Governor.
The school governors meet once a term for a Full Governing Body meeting and in between for sub committees that discuss the school curriculum, the upkeep and development of the school building and grounds, the school budget and finances as well as staffing issues.
These are our current school governors:
