Governance

Governance at the school is provided by an Interim Executive Board (IEB).
The IEB fulfils the governance functions at the school. These are to ensure that the school has a clear strategic direction, that resources are well used, and that the school’s performance and conduct of statutory duties is monitored.

The IEB started its work on the 4 December 2025. Information is provided here about board members and about meetings held by the board.
The board meets monthly at the school.

Message from Stephen Long, Chair of the IEB

As part of its work. the Interim Executive Board (IEB) would like to offer parents and carers a regular opportunity to come in and meet a governor or governors. We hope you will find this a valuable opportunity to talk about the school and hear about what the IEB is doing to support and challenge the school in its work.
