What do we do?
The School Governors are a representative group who oversee the work of the school on behalf of the school and community. 

The governors’ aim is to ensure that the children at Hodnet School get the best possible education that can be provided within the budget set by the Local Authority. 

Governors are not involved in the day to day running of the school, but they are there to: 

·        help form the school's aims and policies

·        support the head teacher and staff in carrying out these aims and policies

·        ensure that the National Curriculum is carried out

·        advise on the administration of the school's budget

·        appoint, promote and discipline staff

·        provide outside advice and act as a link between the local community and school 

The full governing body meets once a term. Working groups for HR, staffing, finance, premises & health & safety and curriculum matters also meet once a term.

In order to meet their responsibilities effectively, Hodnet Governors also attend a range of training courses provided by the LA. 

There are no declaration of business interests from any of the governors listed above in 2017/18. (Signed declarations Autumn Term Full Governing Body meeting November 2017)



Please contact the school if you would like to contact a governor, would like further details about the work of the Governing Body or if you interested in becoming a school governor.
