Function and purpose
School governors have a legal responsibility to conduct the school with a view to promoting high standards of educational achievement. Governing bodies have three key roles: setting strategic direction, ensuring accountability and monitoring and evaluation.
Governing body responsibilities include
• Setting strategic direction, objectives, targets and policies
• Reviewing progress against the budget, plans and targets.
• Approving the school budget.
• Acting as a critical friend to the Headteacher by providing support and challenge.
• Appointing a Headteacher.
Who are represented on the governing body?
Governing bodies are made up of key stakeholders:
• Parents - parent governors are elected by other parents at the school
• Staff, including the headteacher - staff i.e. teaching and other staff, governors are elected by the school staff.
• The community - the governing body appoints community governors i.e. members of the community.
• The Local Authority (LA) - the LA appoints one or more local education authority (LEA) governors.
