What we do:
The aim of the Morgans’ governing board is to support the school to deliver its vision of nurturing life-long learning.
The three core functions of the full governing body are:
ensuring the clarity of vision, ethos and strategic direction of the school;
holding the headteacher to account for the educational performance of the school and its pupils;
overseeing the financial performance of the school and making sure its money is well spent.
School governors work on a voluntary basis. Governors work closely together with the headteacher to support the school and scrutinise decisions.
There are two full governing board meetings a term (three in the autumn term), either in the evening from 7.00-9.00, or in the mornings during school time, from 9.30 to 11.30. Meetings are focussed on how we achieve our three core functions. Improving outcomes for pupils at Morgans drives everything we do.
Our work is structured around three committees.
These committees meet once or twice per term and report back to the full governing board :
Standards & Curriculum
Resources & Premises
Pay & Personnel
Each governor also acts as a Link governor with staff in different subject areas to monitor progress and report back to the full governing board.
