Governors

Welcome to our Governors’ section. 

Please find below details of how our Governing body is structured, including the names, categories, responsibilities and terms of appointment for each Governor.

The role of our Governors is an intrinsic part of the running of the school. Their diverse and varied backgrounds, coupled with their desire for helping the young people of Moreland and St. Luke’s, gives us an excellent and skilled group of committed people with the development and safety of children always held with paramount importance.

Governors at Moreland Primary School uphold standards and maintain excellence by:

  • setting the school’s vision, ethos and strategic direction;
  • holding the headteacher to account for the educational performance of the school and its pupils
  • overseeing the financial performance of the school and making sure its money is well spent.

The role of a Governor is to not only support the Senior Leadership Team here but also to challenge us in our quest for continual improvement. They are, however, not there to manage or become involved in the day-to-day running of the school. The duties of the Governors are fulfilled by attending meetings and providing strategic guidance and probing the Senior Leadership Team within Moreland Primary School. They will also be required to undertake visits, serve on relevent committees to their skills and experience and oversee the Headteacher’s performance.
