Chris de Silva - Parent Committee Member

The Role of the Local Committee Body

Within the Hackness and Wykeham Church of England Primary Schools we work with the school on strategic planning, developing policies and keeping the school under review so that all our children achieve their full potential. Committee members also monitor and evaluate progress towards the school's priorities and targets.

 

We are here to monitor and challenge and work together with the Headteacher and her staff to ensure that all pupils receive the best possible education. We should not be involved in the day to day running of the school, or try to be, and should at all times respect the professionalism of the Interim Headteacher and her staff.

 

Our schools have a single, very active and supportive governing body that works closely with the staff of the schools. Our Chair of Committee is Mrs Tracy Shepherdson who can be contacted through the school offices.

 

All governors are required to declare their material and business interests. Details of these can be found below.
