Governors
The School Governing Body is responsible for ensuring children receive a good education which prepares them for the next stage of their learning journey.
Together with the Headteacher who is responsible for day-to-day management and organisation of the school, the Governing Board determines the school's aims, policies, and future direction.
Members of the Governing Body serve in a voluntary capacity for a minimum period of 4 years. The total membership is 14 people as follows:
- 9 people from the local community with an interest in education (Co-opted Governors)
- 1 representative appointed by the Lambeth Education Authority and confirmed by the Governing Body
- 1 Headteacher
- 1 member of staff (elected by all staff)
- 2 parents (elected by all parents and carers)
- Associate Members (who are not full members) occasionally join the Governors.
The Governing Body has overall responsibility for the strategic direction, vision, and ethos of the school. It monitors the progress of children and policies covering all aspects of their welfare. It approves an annual School Development Plan aimed at raising achievement and standards.
Members also join a committee which reports back to the Governing Body.
- Resources Committee monitors all aspects of budgets, expenditure, audits, premises, oversight of staffing policies, health and safety and ICT development.
- Learning and Community Committee monitors the educational performance through individual visits to school, verbal and written reports from staff. It reviews statistics and data prepared by the school and Lambeth Education to monitor the progress being made by pupils. It also reviews the curriculum offer and all aspects of pupil safety and welfare as well as the school’s engagement with the wider school community.
