MEET THE GOVERNORS | Fordbridge Community Primary School

Fordbridge Primary Governing Body

Our Governing Body play an important role in supporting the development of our school.

The Governing Body are responsible for:

Ensuring the school is operating within the ethos set out in our vision and values.
Contributing to the key strategic priorities.
Monitoring the quality of teaching and learning, attendance, behaviour and safety, within the school and progress against the school improvement plan.
Holding school leaders to account for improvement of standards in the school.
Deciding on how the resources of the school are best used.
Ensuring compliance with the policy for Safeguarding and that we maintain a ‘culture of vigilance’ in respect of all safeguarding matters.
Supporting the appointment of staff

To deliver this effectively the Governor team members are representative of all the key groups involved in our school – Parents, Staff and the Local Authority. Some are appointed, and some are elected. All serve for a term of four years.

We meet at least once a term as a whole team, and in five sub groups:

Staff and Finance
Buildings, Health and Safety,
Scrutiny of Standards
Safeguarding
Inclusion

Please see below the members of the Fordbridge Primary Governing Body.
