Governors Logon

Please find below details of how our Governing body is structured, including the names, categories, responsibilities and terms of appointment for each Governor. The Governing body of the school is drawn from many aspects of the community. The Governors have responsibility for the overall management of the school, acting within the framework set by National legislation and by the policies of the local education authority of Gloucestershire.

At our school there are four types of governor which reflect all those involved in the school community:-

Foundation Governor - The role of a Foundation Governor is to ensure that the Christian ethos of the school is maintained and creatively developed and they are appointed by the Church;
Local Authority Governor - These types of Governors are appointed by the governing body;
Parent Governor - The parent Governors are elected by parents of children attending the school and usually serve for 4 years;
Staff Governor - The role of these governors is to represent the staff at the school and it includes the Headteacher.
