The Role of the Governing Body 
 
Our Governing Body has three key roles:
 
To provide a strategic view of where the school is heading
 
This means that we decide what we want the school to achieve and set the framework for getting there.  We achieve this by reviewing policies, setting aims and deciding on priorities for improvement, to be included in the School Improvement Plan.  We take advice on all of this from the Head teacher but then make our own decisions.
 
To act as a critical friend to the school
 
As a critical friend we offer support, constructive advice, a sounding board for ideas, a second opinion on proposals and help where needed.  We also challenge, ask questions, seek information, improve proposals and seek to arrive at the best solution for all concerned.
 
To hold the school to account for the educational standards it achieves and the quality of the education it provides.
 
Setting targets for the school to achieve in the light of national and local priorities lie at the heart of this aspect of our role. We also systematically monitor and formally evaluate the outcomes.
