GOVERNORS

The governing body has a range of duties and powers and a general responsibility for the conduct of the school with a view to promoting high standards of educational achievement. Biggin Hill Primary School and Cleeve Primary School have a merged Local Governing Body, and meet as one body. 

There is an increasing body of evidence which indicates that formal collaborations between schools, that is consolidated through cross-school governance arrangements and shared accountability improve school performance.

These include the following:

  • Shared accountability can lead to better progress and attainment for pupils, and help schools meet rising expectations.
  • School leaders and teachers can share thinking and planning to spread expertise and tackle challenges together.
  • Governors can work more strategically, especially during challenging times.
  • School leaders can work together to find different solutions to recruitment challenges, to retain staff by providing new opportunities within the group, and to plan succession more effectively.
  • Groups of schools can find it easier to provide richer curricular and extra-curricular activities.
  • Shared professional development can more easily be arranged, whether led by staff from one of the schools or an outside body

As a school we recognise that a diversity of thought, voices and perspectives is essential to good governance and the effective running of any organisation. We regularly collect diversity information from our governors and, depending on current data, can use this to:

 

However, we are unable to publish this information as it would mean that individual members of our governing body are identifiable. 

 

Its responsibilities include, but are not limited to:

  • Setting targets for pupil achievement.
  • Managing the school’s finances.
  • Making sure the curriculum is balanced and broadly based.
  • Appointing staff.
  • Reviewing staff performance and pay.

If you need to contact the chair of governors, Mrs Jill Brookes, for any reason you can do so by calling 01482 825279, sending an email to jbrookes@horizonacademytrust.co.uk or posting a letter addressed to Mrs Jill Brooks to Cleeve Primary Academy, Wawne Road, Hull, HU7 4JH.
