The Governing Body of our school consists of parents, members of staff and individuals connected to the local community. We are all volunteers with a common aim to improve outcomes for children, and are fortunate to have a thriving group.

The core functions of the governing body, with a view to promoting high standards of educational achievement in the school, are:

• Setting the school's strategic vision, ethos and strategy.

• Holding the Headteacher to account for the educational performance of the school

• Ensuring financial health, probity and value for money.

Chair of Governors: Paul Swindell
