Key Governance Documents
Governor Morning
On 18th November we invited our Governors in to school for the morning. They had the chance to see some English, maths and science lessons, speak to some pupils as well as speak to subject co-ordinators. Here are some quotes that summarise their visit:
''This was a lovely morning. The school is warm and welcoming and clearly creating a safe environment for learning.''
''I was very impressed by the way the children were able to express their views- very competent. It was a pleasure speaking to them.''
''A lovely visit. Teachers engaging and pupils focussed and happy.''
" Very warming visit, children were polite and happy to speak about their work. Refreshing."
