CORE FUNCTIONS OF THE GOVERNING BOARD
Governing Boards are expected to fulfil 3 core functions:
1.Setting Strategic Direction –
- - clarity of vision and ethos
- - engaging stakeholders
- - meeting statutory duties
2.Creating Robust Accountability –
- - accountability for teaching, achievement, behaviour and safety
- - strengthening school leadership
- - performance managing the headteacher
- - contributing to school self-evaluation
3.Ensuring Financial Probity –
- - solvency and effective financial management
- - use of Pupil Premium and other resources to overcome barriers to learning
To enable us to meet these core functions the full governing body meets on a termly basis. The Local Govering Board is a sub-committee of the Trust Board and therefore further committess are not required.
