Committee Structure
Much of the work of the Governing Body is carried out at committee level. We have two specially tasked committees in place who work to specific terms of reference and a scheduled programme of meetings. In addition, we also have statutory committees in place for the purposes of disciplinary and dismissal matters. Governors have subject links attached to their role and visit the school on a regular basis, meeting with staff and pupils.
Our committee structure is currently as follows:
Curriculum Committee
The purpose of the Curriculum Committee is to monitor the teaching and learning provision of the school. The committee meets termly as a minimum.
Resources Committee
Our Resources Committee are tasked with monitoring finance, buildings and estates, health and safety and personnel matters. The committee meets as required, meeting on a termly basis as a minimum.
Whole School Community
As a Governing Body, we believe that parents, carers, pupils, staff and members of the wider local community all have an equally important role to play in the success of our school and we value the contribution of our whole school community enormously. In addition to our formal Governing Body committees, we also hold regular Parent Committee meetings on an informal basis as an opportunity for you to share your views with us. If you are interested in attending please contact Mrs K Otton on 01384 816395 for further details.
