The Role of the Governors

The role of the governing board is absolutely key to the effectiveness of a school.

School governors provide strategic leadership and accountability in schools. Governors appoint the head teacher and deputy headteacher. In some schools the site is owned by the governing board. It is governors who hold the main responsibility for finance in schools, and it is governors who work with the headteacher to make the tough decisions about balancing resources.

For information on governor competency and expectations please visit https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/governance-handbook
