The Governing Board meets every term for a formal pre-arranged meeting but the Governors will be in school much more often. Our Governors are hard working and committed to making Grovelands the best school for your children and the community.

At our full Governing Board meetings, we receive and discuss reports from the Headteacher and other members of the senior leadership team. We monitor the results of internal and external assessments of the children's progress and measure the impact of policies which we have adopted to help the school's work.

We oversee and set the school’s financial budget and make sure that we spend wisely. We check to make sure we are receiving good value for the money we spend. We also make sure that the school’s provision complies with current equalities and safeguarding legislation and also that the children and staff have a safe and healthy place to work in. We work as strategic partners with the Grovelands staff to plan the school’s development whilst maintaining its core vision and ethos.
