Governance

Structure and remit of our Governing body

School governors are people who want to make a positive contribution to children’s education.  They come from all sections of the community and all walks of life.  Some of our governors are elected by parents and staff, some are appointed by the Governing body or the North Tyneside Learning Trust. 

The Governing body has 3 core strategic functions:

1. Ensuring that the vision, ethos and strategic direction of the school are clearly defined

2. Ensuring that the headteacher performs their responsibilities for the educational performance of the school

3. Ensuring the sound, proper and effective use of the school’s financial resources
