The Governing Body
We have three core duties as partners in education:
-
Ensuring clarity of vision, ethos and strategic direction
-
Holding the Headteacher to account for the educational performance of the school and its pupils
-
Overseeing the financial performance of the school and making sure its money is well spent
We operate according to the following principles:
- Selflessness: acting always in the interest of the school.
-
Integrity: not placing ourselves under any obligation to people or organisations that might try inappropriately to influence us in our work. We declare and resolve any interests and relationships.
- Objectivity: we act and take decisions impartially and fairly using the best evidence.
-
Accountability: we are accountable for our decisions and actions and submit ourselves to the scrutiny necessary to ensure this.
-
Openness: we act and take decisions in a transparent manner.
-
Honesty: we are resolved always to be truthful.
-
Leadership: we actively promote and robustly support these principles and are willing to challenge poor behaviour wherever it occurs.
