Meet the Governors
‘Staff are proud of their work and proud of their school. Leaders consider the well-being of all
staff members. Morale is high. Governors share the ambition of the school’s leaders and are
knowledgeable about the curriculum. They work effectively in partnership with school leaders
to develop and strengthen the curriculum’
