Governors

Governors are one of the largest volunteer forces in the country and have an important part to play in raising school standards. The role of the governing body is absolutely key to the effectiveness of a school. Each individual governor is a member of a governing body, which is established in law as a corporate body. Individual governors may not act independently of the rest of the governing body. Decisions are the joint responsibility of the governing body.

The role of the governing body is a strategic one, its key functions are to:

• Set the aims and objectives for the school.
• Set the policies for achieving those aims and objectives.
• Set the targets for achieving those aims and objectives and monitor and evaluate the progress the school is making towards achievement of its aims and objectives.
• Be a source of challenge and support to the headteacher (a critical friend).

The Executive Headteacher is responsible for the internal organisation, management and control of the school and the implementation of the strategic framework established by the governing body.
