Welcome to the Governors’ section

Governors are supported by the Local Authority (LA) which provides a wide range of support services, information and materials. The LA works to ensure that the crucial role that governors play in the life of North Yorkshire schools is recognised and understood.

 

Please find above details of how our Governing body is structured, including the names, categories, responsibilities and terms of appointment for each Governor.We have also provided a Register of Governor Interests and an Annual Statement of Issues for your information.
 

Governing Board Diversity Data

As a small governing body, the decision has been taken to opt out of publishing diversity data to ensure the board members’ anonymity.

Interested in becoming a governor?
Schools are fascinating places and being a governor can be very enjoyable and worthwhile. Governors come from all sections of the community: parents, staff at the school, businesses and local community representatives – in fact almost anyone. There is always a need for enthusiastic and committed people to serve as governors. Please check out the links below for more information.
