Link Governors

The vision is in the centre of the link governor model, joined together by the values, which are separated into five key sections. Governors work together across the three terms in these governor teams.

Christian Distinctiveness – This group, focusing on the school's vision, values and Christian Distinctiveness, will include teachers alongside the Governors, including Mrs Ellis-Rushton and Mrs Millington. Associated governors are Mother AnneMarie Naylor, Christine Burkett and Sue Richardson.

Mastery – This is focused on the core skills: numeric, verbal skills, etc. – all considered in one core mastery group, using Assessment for Learning (AFL). EYFS forms part of the Mastery group. Mr Hover (Curriculum), Mrs Ellis-Rushton (Maths) and Mrs Wilton-King (English) work alongside Paul Brand, Susan Harrison, Maria Peiris-Pages, and Paul Chamberlain.

Everyone is Welcome – This is the inclusion group which will look at SEND as well as diversity. Staff in this group will include Mrs Martinez (SENDCo / EAL), Miss Myers (Inclusion Officer), and Mr Hover. Chiara Lisowsi, Maria Peiris-Pages, Sue Richardson, Paul Brand and Paul Chamberlain work in this group.

Wider Curriculum – This looks at the foundation subjects and other areas, developing a broad and balanced curriculum and will have a key focus for each year, e.g. This year it will be Art and Design (Mrs Olsen). The staff in this group will vary by year, based on the subjects covered. Maria Peiris-Pages, Chiara Lisowski, Paul Brand work in this group.

Enrichment – This might change in the future, it is a focus this year. Susan Harrison and Tarun Dixit work with Mr Hover, Mrs Ellis-Rushton and Mrs Wilton-King.
