What do School Governors do?
The purpose of the Larkrise governing body is to help our school to provide the best possible education for its children and to more broadly meet our school vision and strategy. Governors set the school aims and policies together with the head. The head is responsible for day-to-day management with governors strategically focused in areas such as curriculum, school budget, school performance, staffing/recruitment and special educational needs.
No individual governor has any power unless delegated by the governing body. The governing body as a whole is responsible for any decisions made. We challenge the school’s leadership to ensure we meet our aims to improve as well as investigate and support the strategic decisions we make. We tour the school and take part in events and Larkrise Circles. We represent the school and meet with the members of the local community.
Our charging and remissions policy can be found on the School Policies & Procedures page.

We regularly listen to and survey our children and parents. Do get in touch with any ideas to improve our wonderful school. We’ll keep you updated with our Governor Newsletters.
