# Governance

## Our School Governing Board

The Governing Board of St Peter's C of E Primary School consists of 12 Governors including the Headteacher. Each Governor has different roles and may sit on more than one committee. The full Governing Board relies on the work of the committees to inform its work and advise its decisions.

The Governing Board does not have any associate members, so all our Governors have voting rights on The Full Governing Board and committees of which they are a member.

Our Chair of Governors is Fred Kershaw and he leads us, with David Davies our Vice Chair, through each Full Governing Board Meeting which happens termly.

As School Governors, we bring perspectives and experience from our life and work. Our task is to strive for excellence in the care and education of all children at the school. All School Governors volunteer their time to work in partnership with the Headteacher. Together we oversee the strategic development of the school with a common goal: to provide a high standard of education for all pupils, whatever their ability and needs.
