Governors
The Governing Board forms an important link between the school and the community. The board is split into two committees that meet every term and report back to the Full Governing Board.
Governing Board Chair: Amanda Malam
Governing Board Vice-Chair: Mike Stevens
Achievements & Standards Committee
Committee Chair: Mark Parsons
The Achievement & Standards Committee (A&S) is responsible for ensuring that the school meets the needs of every child and promotes high standards of academic and personal development.
Resources Committee
Committee Chair: Arthur Moran
The Resources Committee is responsible for establishing, reviewing and agreeing the school’s proposals for any financial issues. It also ensures the health and safety and development of the school premises and ensures efficient use of utilities. The committee also reviews and agrees staffing provision.
The Governing Board structure chart can be found using the link at the end of this page.
