Governance

A warm welcome from the Governing Body of Fulbourn Primary School

For those not familiar with our role in school, we have provided a brief introduction below.
You may also find out more about the governing body by clicking on the links.

The governing body has three key roles:

  1. Ensuring clarity of vision, ethos and strategic direction.
  2. Holding the head teachers to account for the educational performance of the school and its pupils, and the effective and efficient performance management of staff.
  3. Overseeing the financial performance of the school and making sure its money is well spent.

Fulbourn Primary School  is always interested in hearing from parents and other members of the community who are interested in joining our Governing Body.

  • It’s an opportunity to give back to the community!

If you want to be part of an enthusiastic and dynamic team helping to drive school

improvement and can spare around 10 hours per term we’d love to hear from you.
