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

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.
