Meetings

The Full Governing Body meets three times in the year.  We reviewed and revised our committee structure in 2015/16 to move further in line with the core functions.  We now have four committees:

• Premises
• Standards
• Finance
• Strategy 

Each committee meet at least termly, sometimes more often if required.  We have used these meetings to monitor progress of targets in the school improvement plan and challenge and hold senior leaders to account on all aspects of the work of the school.
