Governing Body

Hollyfast Governing Body

What is the Governing Body?

Every school has a Governing Body, which is made up of representatives of the local community who give their time and services to the school.  The governors come from a wide variety of backgrounds; and do not have to have experience in education. Governors volunteer their time, and the main requirement for the role is the desire to see the school and its pupils succeed in their education and achieve their individual potential.

 

The Full Governing Body meets eight times a year to discuss and review any current issues at the school and to look forward to the year ahead. Dates for future meetings are:-

 

01.03.2023 - Resource Management Committee

 

08.03.2023 - Full Governing Body

 

17.05.2023 - Resource Management Committee

 

24.05.2023 - Quality & Standards Committee

 

07.06.2023 - Full Governing Body
