All Governors are contactable through the School via Letter.

The Governing Body was reconstituted with effect from Summer Term 2015

Chair and Vice Chair of the Full Governing Body and Committee Membership and Terms of Reference and Chair and Vice Chair of Committees are reviewed annually in the Autumn Term.

“As reflected in the law the purpose of maintained school governing bodies is to, ‘Conduct the school with a view to promoting the high standards of educational achievement at the school.’

The three core strategic functions of the Governing Body are:

a.    Ensuring clarity of vision, ethos and strategic direction;

b.    Holding the Headteacher to account for the educational performance of the school and its pupils; and the performance management of staff, and;

c.    Overseeing the financial performance of the school making sure its money is well spent.”

(DFE Governors Handbook January 2015 p.7)

These functions are reflected in the School Governance and in Ofsted criteria to judge the effectiveness of Governance.  


The number and type of committees is not set in statute, but each school’s Governing Body is free to determine how many Committees and Governor Panels is should have and the terms of reference of these Committees/Panels.
