Meet the Governors

CROESO! Welcome to our Governors’ section.

We have a vacancy for a parent governor.

Please contact the school to find out more.

Members of the Governing Body work with the Headteacher on a voluntary basis to strategically manage the school in partnership with the local authority. They are a corporate body consisting of unpaid volunteers with a duty to act in the best interests of the whole school, and they work diligently as a collective for the benefit of the pupils. This academic year our priorities are:

 

1 To To continue to develop a whole school approach to support the well-being of the school community

 

2       To use effective pedagogical principles when implementing the school’s new curriculum  

 

3       To ensure the school’s assessment arrangements help meet the needs of ALL pupils and adhere to the            requirements of the new Curriculum for Wales 

 

Please click HERE to see a summary of our School Development Plan which explains how the school will be addressing these priorities.
