Welcome to Fulmer Infant School Governing Body 

Our purpose:

We are all volunteers who come from the parent body, staff and the local community. Our responsibility is provide support and challenge to the school by working with the Head Teacher and her staff to:

• Ensure clarity of vision, ethos and strategic direction.
• Hold the Head Teacher to account for the educational performance of the school and it’s pupils and the performance management of the staff.
• Oversee the financial performance of the school and make sure it’s money is well spent.

Our Members:

Our Governing Board is made up of two parent governors, five co-opted governors, one governor appointed by the Local Authority, one member of staff and the Headteacher.  We come from different backgrounds, but all share a passion for education and an ambition to make the school the best it can be for all its pupils.
