Tonight's Full Governing Body meeting

By Anonymous -

A packed agenda at tonight's Full Governors meeting meant the coffee pot(s) got drained.
We started the evening with our external auditors financial report from our accountants, Baldwins Audit Services.

After the Head Teacher's report, we looked at attendance and the issues around the topic of term time holidays. We then looked at the School Development Plan and how governors will be involved over the forthcoming year. The School Development Plan includes improving outcomes in maths and english, the mental health of members of our school, the continuing personal development of staff, and improving the provision and outcomes for groups of pupils across the curriculum. Governors are looking forward to being involved.

We are currently looking for additional members of our governing body. If you are a parent or a member of our local community and are interested in joining, please get in touch!
