Governance
The school governors are supportive and highly motivated. They have a deep understanding of the nature and mission of this Catholic academy and are committed to its vision and aims. They work in partnership for the best interests of the children. Their vision and passion for continued improvement steers and focuses their decision-making process: they challenge and support the school leadership to good effect.
Governors make frequent visits to the school to review provision, talk to staff, meet pupils and discuss school development.
