At the latest meeting Governors met with the Maths lead who informed governors of the improvements in pupils' knowledge of maths and how they are able to talk to others about what they are learning. The enthusiasm of the Maths lead really came across and it was clear that their passion for the subject is being carried through to lessons.

Governors also commented on the amount of achievement points pupils had been awarded. It has been lovely to see this positive approach by staff and pupils through the school.

Governors always consider how funding is spent in the school and how it is being used to improve outcomes for pupils. On the school website are details of how Pupil Premium funding is being spent. A governor had visited school to see the plan in action and was able to feedback to governors about how the money is being used.

Governors met on the first day back after Christmas and were grateful that the Headteacher and School Business Manager had worked so hard before Christmas to have documents ready for the meeting.


The Chair and Headteacher had met with the Local Authority to discuss if any changes were needed to the governing board to better meet the needs of the school. Governors were pleased to hear that previous ideas in meetings shared were very similar to local authority suggestions and were glad that they remain up to date with their practise. Governors currently meet 6 times a year with 2 extra meetings for those who sit on the finance committee.


The SENCO also visited the meeting to give a short presentation. Governors heard about the positive adjustments to teaching that benefit all pupils across the school. Parents are also becoming more involved and taking part in workshops to help their children with their learning.
