School Governance
The governing body, with the headteacher, has overall responsibility for the running of the school.
The governing body have three core strategic functions:
- Ensuring clarity of vision, ethos and strategic direction;
- Holding the headteacher to account for the educational performance of the school and its pupils; and
- Overseeing the financial performance of the school and making sure its money is well spent.
The Chair of Governors can be contacted via the school office or by email via the Clerk to the Governing Body clerk@standrews.beds.sch.uk
