This is a fantastic opportunity to make a real difference to the lives of children and our community. As a governor, you'll play a vital role in supporting the school's strategic direction, holding school leaders accountable, and overseeing its financial performance.

We are fortunate to already have a strong group of governors. Training and support is provided.
