  Meetings

  Full Governing BodyMeeting.
  Full Governing Body meeting take place about once a term but we tend to have two meetings in the summer term. The Governors help to determine the vision and strategic direction of the alliance ensuring children and staff are safe, while challenging and supporting the schools in making any necessary improvements. Governors delegate the operational running of the school to the Executive Headteacher and the wider leadership team. However they oversee the financial performance of the schools and children’s centres and ensure money is well spent.

  The governing body main role is to support and challenge the Executive Headteacher and the leadership team to uphold the visions and values of the school and continue to offer outstanding care and education for children and their families.

  Minutes of full governing body meetings will be published on the school website each term.

  Curriculum and Well Being /Resources Sub Committees
