Our Governing Body

School governing bodies are responsible for working with the school to ensure that it delivers a good quality education. Together with the headteacher, who is responsible for day-to-day management, they set the school's aims and policies.

Structure of our Governing Body

Our Governing body is split into 2 committees:

  • The Education Committee
  • The Resources Committee
