Our Governors
Governors work as a team called the Governing Body. They are responsible for making sure the school provides a high quality education and has high expectations of what pupils can achieve.
Governors also promote effective ways of teaching and learning when setting the school aims and policies. They do this together with the Executive Headteacher, who is responsible for the day to day management of the school. All governing bodies include governors who are:
Parents elected by parents at the school
Staff elected by Head, teachers and support staff at the school.
A governor appointed by Lambeth.
The governing body's main role is to help raise standards of achievement.
It is accountable for :
- the performance of the school to parents and the wider community
- planning the school's future direction
- selecting the headteacher
- making decisions on the school's budget and staffing
- making sure the national curriculum is taught
- deciding how the school can encourage pupil's spiritual, moral and social development
- making sure the school provides for all its pupils, including those with special needs
Governors support and challenge the headteacher by gathering views, asking questions and deciding what's best for the school. The governors are involved in the school’s self-evaluation and improvement planning processes.
