Governors
At Cheriton Primary School we have a Governing Body who bring a vast range of skills and enthusiasm to the school.
The Department for Education (http://www.education.gov.uk/a0056625/the-role-of-governor-within-the-governing-body) say that ...
The purpose of having a governing body is to
- help the school to set high standards by planning for the school's future and setting targets for school improvement
- keep the pressure up on school improvement
- be a critical friend to the school, offering support and advice
- help the school respond to the needs of parents and the community
- make the school accountable to the public for what it does
- work with the school on planning, developing policies and keeping the school under review
- exercise its responsibilities and powers in partnership with the headteacher and staff
- not intervene in the day-to-day management of the school unless there are weaknesses in the school, when it then has a duty to take action.
At Cheriton we feel that we are now poised to reach and exceed these expectations.
