Governors and Committee Information

Ofsted report about the governance of our school:

"The Governing Body have a deep insight into the school's many strengths and few areas for improvement ..."

Members of the Governing Body have established a truly cohesive school community where everybody shares the same vision and values.

The governance of the school knows the school very well because members visit regularly to monitor the school’s work. The governing body has been involved in school development and improvement planning and in setting challenging targets for the school to achieve, including for the proportion of teaching which is good or better.

The governance of the school has a strong knowledge of the progress of different groups of students. The governors receive regular and comprehensive reports from the Headteacher and have also requested that heads of subject areas attend meetings of the governing body where they are challenged to explain any remaining gaps in attainment for different groups of students.

The governance of the school ensures that equal opportunities have a high profile in the school and is committed to tackling discrimination.
