School Governors
Welcome to our Governors’ section.
Our Local Governing Committee (LGC) currently comprises of 11 governors representing parents/carers, staff and the local community.
The Governing Committee works in partnership with the school's leadership team to provide an environment that respects the needs, values, cultures and opinions of others, where children can develop positive attitudes towards learning, discover success and develop self-esteem.
