Meet the Governors

Welcome to our Governors’ section. 

Our Governors work hard to support the work of the school and to ensure it serves the children of the school in the best way possible, in partnership with the Church, parish and local community.  They can be contacted via the school office.

Please find below details of how our Governing body is structured, including the names, categories, responsibilities and terms of appointment for each Governor.

We are currently undergoing an ERG; for more information please click here.
