Governors

My name is Cathy Wearing and I have recently been appointed Chair of Governors on March 18th, 2008. I have had 6 children go through this school and one still attending and all have enjoyed/are enjoying their time here. I felt that I wanted to give something back to the school which is why I became a governor, and I see my role as a position of service to the school and the community.

Being a governor can be very interesting, you find out a lot about the school as it is now and what may be happening in the future and have a chance to influence that. I have also spent time at the school listening to the children read and have found this very rewarding. I live very close to the school and I love to hear the sound of happy children playing in the playground during their breaks, which I believe is one of the signs of a good school.

I am sure that you would agree that we want our children to be happy and we can all help by supporting the school as many of you already do.

Governors' Meetings 2007 – 2008

These are held in school, two per term and, in addition there is a whole Governor Training Evening. Our Governors also individually attend training meetings arranged by the Education Authority.
