Every school has a Governing Body that is made up of the following:

• Parents of children who attend the school
• Teachers from the school
• A non-teaching member of staff at the school
• People appointed by the Local Education Authority
• People living and working within the local community​

The Governors have a very important role to play.

In conjunction with the Head teacher they are involved in:

• Creating and implementing the schools vision
• Making and authorizing financial decisions
• Forming Policies and monitoring the curriculum
• Setting appropriate challenge for the school
• Actively pursuing the best interests of children and all associated with the school.

Governors usually serve for a period of four years and they require no special qualifications. All Governors are informed about their responsibilities and training is available. The Governing Body meets at least once a term and there are additional meetings for other business. Once a year Governors prepare a report for parents and they are invited to a meeting to discuss its contents.
