Who are the Governors?
What is the Governing Body?
Governors are like a Board of Directors and make strategic decisions about how the school is run. They meet at least once a term as a full body and several times in statutory committees.
Governors are appointed to help:
· Decide what is taught
· Set standards of achievement
· Interview and appoint staff
· Monitor the school budget
School governors have legal responsibilities, powers and duties. They can only act as a body, not individually.
School governors are:
· Representatives of the Church in Wales
· Parents
· Teacher
· Non teaching staff
· Local council representative
· Community representative
Parent governors bring the views of parents to the Governing Body, but they are not ‘mouthpieces’ of the parents. They do not vote for all parents in general. They have equal status in the work of the Governing Body and have voting rights.
Parent governors can make sure that all communication with parents is understood and is informative. They will ensure that all parents have access to the Annual report to Parents. Parent governors should be aware of ways of encouraging parental interest and should become actively involved in drawing parents into school.
How can I become a Governor?
Ask the head teacher or contact the Clerk to Governors.
