Welcome from the Governors
Dear Parents and Guardians
My name is Phil Heaton and it is my privilege to be Chair of St. Joseph’s Governing Body, joining a long line of dedicated and caring people who have held this post. My aim is to always act in the best interest of the school, children and staff.
The Governors are dedicated volunteers who work tirelessly in their support for Mr Richardson and the staff to provide a safe happy and secure environment for your children thus giving them the best possible opportunity to reach their full potential.
Whilst the day to day management of the school is the responsibility of the Headteacher, as Governors we are responsible for:
- Ensuring clarity of vision, ethos and strategic direction
- Holding the Headteacher to account for the educational performance of the school and its pupils
- Overseeing the financial performance of the school and making sure its money is well spent.
If you need more information about governance then please get in touch with me via the school office.
