Our Governors are a diverse group of individuals with a broad range of professional and personal skills, experiences and attitudes. Additionally, they all share a common goal, which is to help both schools to provide their pupils with the best education possible.
Governors have three main responsibilities:
- To determine the strategic direction of the schools and oversee school development, as outlined in the Strategic School Improvement Plan.
- To contribute to both school’s self evaluation process, which involves, amongst other things, consulting parents, pupils and staff about their views of the schools, responding to the recommendations made by Ofsted and reviewing the results of the National SATs tests.
- To act as a ‘critical friend’ by providing support and challenge through asking the right questions and providing an informed opinion on both schools' actions and proposed activities.
Effective governance is based on six key features:
- Strategic leadership that sets and champions vision, ethos and strategy.
- Accountability that drives up educational standards and financial performance.
- People with the right skills, experience, qualities and capacity.
- Structures that reinforce clearly defined roles and responsibilities.
- Compliance with statutory and contractual requirements.
- Evaluation to monitor and improve the quality and impact of governance.
