Governance
Our school Governors are committed to achieving our shared vision for the school. The members of our Local Governing Body (LGB) meet formally each half term. In addition to that, Governors visit the school as part of their ‘link’ roles, in areas such as Safeguarding, Health and Safety, Pupil Premium, Special Educational Needs, and Behaviour and Attendance. Our Governors are tasked with both supporting and challenging the school and its leadership team with the goal of continued improvement.
