The governing body work with the headteacher to set the direction of the school and its development. They have statutory responsibilities for health & safety, safeguarding children, finance, Special Educational Needs and staffing. Although most of these duties will be delegated to the headteacher, the governors monitor these aspects of the school's work and its overall performance. They also approve and regularly review school policies.
There is a meeting of the full Governing Body at least once each term. All governors monitor a particular aspect of the school's operation and sit on a sub-committee which reports to the full governing body (see list below).
The clerk to the governors is Ellen Wilson. Correspondence can be emailed to ellen.wilson@northyorks.gov.uk or posted to the school, marked FAO Clerk to the Governors.
