Governor Attendance
Governors are required to attend at least the statutory termly Full Governing Body Meetings and, if they fail to do so, the Governing Body can review their appointment and consider disqualifying them from the Governing Body. However, we recognise that attendance at one meeting per term is unlikely to enable the Governor to contribute fully to meeting the statutory responsibilities and accountabilities of the Governing Body. Our Governors are encouraged to make regular visits to school, to apply their skills to support and challenge our Headteacher and to develop their knowledge and understanding of the expectations we have of our pupils, staff and Senior Leaders. In practice, the Full Governing Body and each of the two main committees, meet more frequently. Individuals can be assigned specific responsibilities, such as Safeguarding. They may be invited to work together with other Governors and Staff in a Working Group to review policies, review key issues and plan next steps to deliver our Development Plan. They may be part of an Appointment Panel to fill key job vacancies. In addition, they may attend training and development to support their own understanding of their role. An annual Governors day is held to review vision, aims and school priorities. We value their input and acknowledge that some of our Governors volunteer hours of their own time. For that reason, we will always review attendance at the statutory meeting in the context of their overall contribution.
All Governors have been assigned to the Achievement and Standards Committees or Finance and Resources Committees . The Headteacher will attend all statutory and committee meetings.
