Governors

The governing body is a group of dedicated volunteers who help to set the vision and shape the direction of the school. The body is made up of the Executive Principal, parents governors who are elected by the parent body, staff governors who work at the school and are elected by their colleagues, and Trust-appointed governors.

The governors are responsible for making sure the school provides a high quality education, and for raising educational standards in school. They do this by setting policies to ensure the safety of pupils and promoting effective teaching and learning; they do this with the headteacher who is responsible for the day to day management of the school.

If you are interested in becoming a governor, wish to know more about the role, or have a complaint, please contact Melanie Gibbons, Governance Officer on telephone 07729 105871 or via e-mail m.gibbons@wellspringacademies.org.uk
