The Governing Body
The Governing Body forms an important part of the school’s overall leadership and management. It sets the strategic direction of the school, while the Headteacher leads staff in the day-to-day organisation of teaching, learning, support and planning.
The Governing Body is not involved in daily management – this is the Headteacher’s role. Instead, governors work to promote high standards, provide challenge and support, and ensure the school continues to improve.

Setting the school’s ethos and vision

Reviewing the School Development Plan

Agreeing the annual budget

Reviewing and approving school policies
