St. Andrew's CE (VA) Junior School

Governors

Who are the Governors?

School Governors are a team of people who work closely with the Headteacher to make key decisions vital to the successful running of the school. The Governors appoint the Headteacher and make decisions that directly affect the education and well-being of the children. They play an important role in improving standards throughout the school and agree the school’s budget. As a church school our Governing Body comprises foundation governors appointed by the church and other people from different walks of life. This brings a good balance of skills to move the school forward.   The Full Federated Governing Body for St Andrews Infants and Juniors Schools, runs within the parameters of the Instrument of Government and Terms of Reference, which are reviewed annually.   The Governing Body has one committee, the Pay and Resources Committee. During the 2023/24 academic year the committee membership consists of  Graham Lawley (Committee Chair),  Glenys Philips and Ian Knight.
