Pinxton Nursery School (Maintained) Governing Body
All state maintained schools in England have a Governing Body, which is responsible for overseeing many of the strategic decisions of the school. A key role is to act as a ‘critical friend’: to support, to challenge, to ask questions and ultimately to represent the school community.
The Governing Body works in close partnership with the Headteacher, staff and the local authority. Whilst the Headteacher is, responsible for the day-to-day running of the school, the governors are involved with such things as staffing, curriculum, school buildings and finance. It ensures the school functions well and maintains the proper range of academic and social objectives.
Governing Body meetings
The Governing Body has five Governing Body meetings per academic year to meet and review the progress of the nursery school.
Governing Body meetings for the 2019/20 academic year are on the following dates:
Governing Body committees
The Governing Body also has Committees to deal with specific details of governing the school. These committees report to the Governing Body meetings. The committees and their remits for review and challenge are as follows:
Named Governors
A number of governors are also ‘Named Governors’ with responsibilities to review curriculum and other areas of the school’s role. Each named governor meets the teacher in school who is responsible for that area.
