Governing Bodies exist so that schools are publicly accountable to local people for what they do, for the results they achieve, and for the way in which the resources are allocated. Each year the Governing Body produces an Annual Report which is sent to all parents, and there is an opportunity for parents to discuss the report and raise other issues with the governors at the annual general meeting.
What are the duties of a school governor?
Governors are expected to:
1. Agree the aims and values of the school

of the school (eg National Curriculum, special educational
