Our vision
All pupils will have the opportunity to realise an excellent education.
Our Mission
St Andrew’s will be a learning inspired, safe, supportive and creative environment, providing opportunities for success for all pupils and staff which will strengthen our communities.
What We Do
Working closely with the Senior Leadership Team, the main responsibility of governing bodies are defined in three key areas;
• Ensuring that the vision, ethos and strategic direction of the school are clearly defined;
• Ensuring that the head teacher performs her responsibilities for the educational performance of the school
• Ensuring the sound, proper and effective use of the schools financial resources.
A Governing Body aims to act with integrity, objectivity and honesty and in the best interests of the school and be open about the decisions they make and the actions they take; and in particular be prepared to explain their decisions and actions to interested parties.
