Our Governors are all hardworking and dedicated to being a highly effective governing body. They are both supportive and critical friends and have a rich set of skills covering a broad spectrum.
As well as termly full governing body meetings, there are three sub-committees including a Finance and Resources, Pupil Support and Standards committee.
Members of the Governing Body serve a four-year term which can then be renewed. All parents have the opportunity of becoming a school governor and all parents may take part in the election of representatives on the Governing Body.
The Local Governing Board (LGB) came into effect on 01.09.21 at the point when the School converted to academy status. Our Chair of Governors meets termly with the CEO of the Uttoxeter Learning Trust which feeds into the Trust Board.
