Meet the Governors

CROESO! Welcome to our Governors’ section.

 

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:

 

Priority 1 : T

Improve self-evaluation, monitoring and improvement planning to ensure that it focuses on the aspects most in need of improvement

Priority 2 : T

Improve the quality of teaching and assessment to ensure that lessons meet the needs of all learners

Priority 3 : T

Ensure that teachers plan opportunities for pupils to improve and refine their writing skills to make the progress they are capable of

 

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

WHAT DO GOVERNORS DO?

Governors work together with the Headteacher and staff of the school to make sure that the school provides good quality teaching and learning for our children and raise standards.

They are expected to:- 

  • Agree the aims and values of the school
  • Agree policies
  • Approve the School Development or School Improvement Plan
  • Approve and monitor the allocation and expenditure of the school budget
  • Make sure the national curriculum is taught and there is sufficient staff to teach it
  • Monitor and review the school’s progress
  • Ensure individual pupils' needs are met, including additional needs
  • Recruitment and Selection of some Staff
  • Give parents information about the school
  • Produce action plans for improvement following school inspections
  • Promote healthy eating
  • Establish and maintain positive links with the wider community
  • Support the day-to-day operational decisions taken by the Headteacher
  • Promote the effectiveness of the governing body
  • However, this is not a definitive list!
