The day-to-day management of the school is the responsibility of the head teacher and staff. Rather than manage. Governors are there to help shape the school's future direction and focus.
TYPES OF GOVERNORS
Parent Governors
Parents, including carers, of registered pupils at the school are eligible to be elected as governors at the school. Parent Governors are elected by other parents at the school by a process of nominations and a ballot if necessary.
Local Authority Governors
The Local Authority appoints LA Governors and any eligible person can be appointed to this role.
Staff Governors
Both teaching and support staff, who are employees at the school, are eligible to become Staff Governors. They are elected by the school staff.
Headteacher
The Headteacher is a member of the Governing Body by virtue of his/her office.
Co-opted Governors
Co-opted Governors are appointed by the Governing Body on the basis that they have the necessary skills to contribute to the effective governance and success of the school. All categories of governor are elected or appointed to serve a four-year term of office: governors may serve more than one term of office.
School governors play a vital role in education.
The governing board plans the strategic direction of a school, makes sure public money is well spent, and holds school leadership to account.
