Welcome to our Governors’ section.
Please find below details of how our Governing Body is structured, including the names, categories, responsibilities and terms of appointment for each Governor.
St John’s C of E Primary School has an extremely committed and hardworking Governing Body which works closely with the all stakeholders to ensure that the school continues to sustain excellence and to retain its Christian vision and values.
Governors spend valuable time in school not only helping the drive towards continuous improvement but also to be part of the school community. At the end of each half term a Governor will be in our weekly Celebration Assembly to give out Governor Awards and at the end of each school year, Governors organise a special trip or event for those children who have achieved this award that year.
If you wish to contact our governing body, please call the school office.
