Our Local Governing Committee (LGC) are volunteers who help to run the school. They’re involved in decisions about all aspects of managing the school – such as running buildings and budgets, supporting staff and setting standards of school discipline. Governors meet on a regular basis to discuss the performance of the school, ensure that pupils are making progress and are responsible for ensuring that all of the legal obligations of the school are met. They support the principal, but also ask questions and make sure the headteacher is taking the school in the right direction.
The Local Governing Committee support and challenge the school to achieve the best possible standards of education.
Governors also regularly visit the school to see that the Schoold Development Plan is being delivered and talk to pupils, staff and parents about how well the school is progressing.
