Our Instrument of Government is:
School governors work on a voluntary basis and are central to the life of the School. The Governing Body is made up of parent governors, teacher governors, County Council appointments, and co-opted members. The governors meet on a regular basis to discuss such things as finance, curriculum, personnel issues and issues relating to the use of the school premises. At all times the Headteacher and the Governors work closely together. The day to day running of the school is devolved to the headteacher.
