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.
Could you be a school governor?

Could you be a school governor? School governors are members of our local community who care about our school and the young people we support. Being a school governor can be a very positive experience. Share your skills and passion for the success of our school and become a governor. You can learn more about school governance, what governors do and how to get involved here.
