There are six meetings of the full Local Governing Body (LGB) each academic year. One per half term. At present there are no standing committees, however, a pay awards committee will be formed in the Autumn term each year to review annual staff pay awards.

 

Parent Governor Appointments

All parents/carers are contacted when a parent/carer governor vacancy arises and are invited to apply. If more than one application is received, we undertake a ballot of parent/carers to determine who will fill the vacancy.

 

Appointed Governors

If you’re interested in becoming a governor and you are not a parent/carer of a pupil or a member of staff, you can join us as an Appointed Governor.  Please email the Clerk for further information on how to apply.

 

Teaching/Staff Governors

Teacher governors are invited to apply to be a Staff Governor when a vacancy arises, and should the school receive more than one teacher application we undertake a ballot process to determine who will fill the vacancy.

 

The term of office for all types of Governor is 4 years. Governors can stand for multiple terms of office.
