GOVERNORS | Paulton Infants

Welcome

Welcome from your Governing Body

Behind the scenes of Paulton Infant School is a Local Governing Committee (LGC), made up of a mixture of parents and other members of our local community. The LGC challenge and support the Headteacher holding them to account for the educational performance of the school and its pupils, monitor the implementation of the School Development Plan, ensure that the school’s money is well spent and that the school is safe and welcoming.

Full details of the LGC’s responsibilities can be found on The Partnership Trusts Governance page. School governors are one of the country's largest voluntary groups with around 300,000 contributing to strategic development and raising standards of achievement at more than 30,000 schools. High quality governance is crucial to children’s education and life chances, holding Head Teachers and schools to account and securing the future of the school.

We are looking to recruit new governors and encourage applications from people of all backgrounds (prior school experience is not a pre-requisite). If you feel you could bring something to our Governing Committee, please do not hesitate to call or email the school office to discuss the role.

Our Local Governing Committee meets four times a year with extra-ordinary meetings as required by circumstance. There are also two opportunities to attend Partnership Trust wide events.
