Being a school governor is a very rewarding job. Governors have the opportunity to support the development of the school, helping to improve the education for the pupils.
• Promote high standards
• Set targets for pupil achievement
• Assist with managing the school’s budget
• Discuss current curriculum issues
• Devise action plans to bring about school improvement
Contact with members of the Governing Board should be made through the school office.
There is a team of governors at Godfrey Ermen, with representatives from St Michael’s Church Parochial Church Council (PCC), school staff, parents and the Local Authority (LA).
