The governing body (Local School Committee) at Ruishton Church of England Primary School bring a wide range of different skills and experience. We are all enthusiastic and committed and have the education and well-being of the children at Ruishton at heart.
The main responsibility of a governing body is to ensure high school standards through the three key roles of setting strategic direction, particularly linking to our values and vision, ensuring accountability and acting as a critical friend.
Being a school governor can be an extremely rewarding experience. It gives the opportunity of playing an important part in improving the children’s education and also supporting the school’s staff.
