Welcome to our Governors’ section.
Please find below details of how our Governing body is structured, including the names, categories, responsibilities and terms of appointment for each Governor.
A governor role can be a difficult and demanding role, but also produces its own rewards when we can see the standards of care and evidence of hard work and dedication of all the members of the teaching and non-teaching staff and being a part of the difference our schools make to our children.

All governors give their time freely and are a dedicated team of volunteers including parents, church, community and staff governors here to support the work of the federation and to act with the best interest of all our pupils.

We have also provided a Register of Governor Interests and an Annual Statement of Issues for your information.
