Governors' Update July 2008 \| June 2008 \| April 2008 I March 2008 \| January 2008 \| November 2007
Our aims
- To help shape the vision and direction of the school - To ensure that the school fulfils its statutory duties, including promoting inclusive policies in relation to special educational needs, race equality, disability and sex - To have a good understanding of the strengths and weaknesses of the school - To challenge and support the Senior Leadership Team (SLT)

What we do
In addition to five Full Board meetings a year, smaller groups of Governors meet termly in committees to consider various aspects of running the school: Curriculum/Liaison Committee Pastoral Committee Resources Committee Staffing Committee We have developed the role of Link Governors. Each Link Governor meets with a member of the Senior Leadership Team (SLT) and through that member of SLT to a particular Faculty. In this way the governors can get a good grasp of the school’s strengths and weaknesses and then we can challenge and support appropriately. Some of the topics discussed in 2006/2007 in our Link Governors’ meetings include: Progress in English The transition programme Subject reviews and monitoring Gifted and Talented students The Humanities faculty Implementation of the positive behaviour strategy ICT relating to the new school
