Barkston Ash Catholic Primary School

Governors

What is the role of the Governors?

Governors have a strategic remit which means that they are not involved in the everyday running of the school. Their role is to: 

  • Ensure clarity of catholic vision, ethos and strategic direction; 
  • Hold the appropriate senior leadership within the school to account for the educational performance and catholic character of the school and its pupils; and for the internal organisation, management and control of the school, including performance management of staff; and;
  • Oversee the financial performance of the school and make sure its money is well spent. 

 

How often do Governors meet?

Governors meet every half term.

 

Can I see a copy of the meeting minutes?

Copies of the minutes of Governing Board meetings are available on request from the school office. 

 

How do I raise a question or issue relating to the school?

Any concerns should be raised, in the first instance, with either your child's class teacher or the Headteacher. If the concerns are about the Headteacher, these should be raised with the Chair of Governors.  Please refer to our complaints policy for further guidance - Barkston Ash Catholic Primary School - Policies
