The School Governors
|
|
Have you ever wondered why our school has governors?
The work of the governors often appears to be a bit of a mystery to many. Here, we explain the work of the governors, what value that work adds to our school and why it is so important.
On the Governing Body there are people representing different groups such as parents, teachers and members of the local community.
The overall purpose of the Governing Body is to help Claverdon Primary School provide the best possible education for its pupils, in order to develop every child's full potential.
This involves, in particular:
|
|
- setting the school's vision and strategic aims, agreeing plans and policies, and making creative use of resources;
- monitoring and evaluating performance and acting as a critical friend to the headteacher, in order to support and challenge them in managing the school;
- ensuring that the school is accountable to the children and parents it serves, its local community, those who fund and maintain it, as well as the staff it employs.

Good governance makes an impact in the classroom and Claverdon Governors aim to contribute to high standards of attainment, together with good quality teaching and pupil behaviour.
The Governors actively support the School and staff with the implementation of the School Curriculum, Local Authority requirements and the National Curriculum Regulations.
The Governors aim to encourage a caring partnership between the School, Parents and Governors based on trust and a shared understanding in order that the child's education can be for the benefit of the child, school and community.

Organisation
Governors serve on the Full Governing body, together with a sub committee and they volunteer for various working parties as the need arises
|
|
|
The two sub committees are:
- Resources
- Performance and Standards
In order to promote a greater understanding of the life of the school, each governor is linked to a year group, together with a curriculum coordinator.
