Our Governors
Who are School Governors and what role do they play in a school?
School Governors are drawn from different parts of the community and can be parents and staff or from the LA, the community and other groups. This helps ensure the governing body has sufficient diversity of views and experience, but does not mean governors of a particular category represent that group on the governing body.
- Parent Governors are drawn from parents and carers of children at the school and are selected by election.
- Staff Governors are selected by election from teaching and support staff paid to work at the school.
- The Headteacher is always invited to join the governing body by reason of their role in the school.
- Local authority governors are appointed by the Local Authority.
- Foundation governors are appointed by the Bishop, through the Parish Priest and must be a practising Catholic in the Diocese of Lancaster.
Governors are one of the largest volunteer forces in the country and have a vital role in raising school standards and driving forward improvements. The role of the Governing Board is absolutely key to the effectiveness of a school. In a catholic school the Governing Board are the employers
The Governing Board appoints a Chair and Vice-Chair annually and allocates its responsibilities across various committees.
