Governors are attached to a subject and work closely with the Subject Leader to develop and support the subject. Subject responsibilities are detailed within the 'Panels, Committee & Curricular Links' page.

Organisational structure

Governors meet at a full governing body meeting every half term, and each governor sits on at least one sub committee of which there are currently three main ones:

• Curriculum and Achievement
• Finance and Premises
• Community and Staffing

These committees meet once or twice a term. The committees have delegated powers, but report back to the main governing body at each meeting.

Parents are always welcome to attend governors meetings as observers, please contact us by email if you would like to attend a meeting.
