Staff & Governors

STAFF

The school currently has a headteacher plus 10 teachers.

The Headteacher, together with the Deputy Head/Inclusion Officer and two Leaders in Learning and Teaching, form the Leadership Team which works closely with the Governors in leading and managing the school.

There are nine full time class teachers, all of whom have curriculum development responsibilities, and a Nursery Nurse to support younger children.

There are a number of staff who support pupils' learning, including those who release teachers for Planning, Preparation and Assessment (PPA) time, Cover Supervisors to cover absence, an ICT Technician and staff who support children with specific special educational needs.

The administrative team support the smooth running of the school.

GOVERNING BODY

To see a list of our Governors, click here. We are very lucky to have a very dedicated Board of Governors, who work extremely hard on behalf of the school. Each Governor is a volunteer and receives no payment for what can sometimes be a very demanding and difficult role. Many of our Governors are parents, who hold down a full time job as well as dealing with Governing Body business. We do not underestimate their contribution to the school and thank them for their hard work and commitment.

Full Governing Body meetings are held each term and meetings will focus on either curriculum and pupil related matters or resouces.

Individual Governors agree to accept responsibilities for different areas of the school, their role within the school is to monitor the way the school is managed by the Headteacher and Senior Leadership Team and to act as a 'Critical Friend' to the school.

Our Governors are always willing to listen to parent's views of the school and to approach the Headteacher with any concerns parents may have. Parents wishing to contact the Governing Body can do so by writing to the Clerk to Governors c/o the School Office.
