Governors

School governors have a vital role in making sure all pupils receive the highest standard of education possible. They have specific duties given to them by law including: agreeing school development priorities; setting school targets; agreeing school policies; and making sure the curriculum is balanced. Governors provide a headteacher with support and advice, sharing in formulating the school’s aims and vision.

Governing bodies are generally made up of between nine and 20 governors. At Emscote we have a governing body comprising community governors, local authority governors, parent governors and associate members.
