Our Governing Board
The Governing Board wishes to offer a warm welcome to all visiting our school website. Our governors are committed to supporting the school and our board meets regularly throughout the school year to perform the required statutory duties.
Below is our Governing Board Prayer which is spoken at the outset of all board meetings:
Heavenly Father,
We seek the guidance of your Holy Spirit in the business that is before us.
In planning for the future, give us vision.
In matters of finance, give us responsibility.
In dealing with people, give us love.
Watch over the children and staff of this school so that it may flourish according to your will.
Amen
Queries about the Board should be addressed for the attention of the Clerk to Governors via the bursar email address.
