The remit of the board is:
- Ensuring clarity of vision, ethos and strategic direction
- Holding executive leaders to account for the educational performance of the organisation and its pupils, and the effective and efficient performance management of staff
- Overseeing financial performance of the organisation and making sure its money is well spent
The governing body meets at least once a term to discuss current matters affecting the school including finance, staffing, curriculum, community and welfare.
The governing Board is made up of teachers, parents and community representatives. Each bring their own views to the meetings, but share a common view, with teaching staff, of what we are working towards at Vickerstown.
Our Chair of Governors is Ms Jenny Crellin.
Any correspondence for the governing board is to go to Andy Judd (Clerk to Governors) clerk@vickerstownschool.org.uk or David Holmes (Head Teacher)

School Governors make a positive contribution to children’s education by offering supportive challenge to help raise standards and monitor resources effectively. They work as a team and come from a wide variety of backgrounds to add value to school life by offering their skills, expertise and time.
We are looking for dedicated individuals who want to make a difference in the lives of children and are willing to share their experience in an educational environment and who could also offer their knowledge and expertise in one or more of these areas; finance, human resources, health and safety, communications or managing premises.
If you have a passion for improving the life chances of children and can offer supportive challenge to the leadership of our school to help us to fulfil our vision, please contact the school office for further information.
Governors do not need any formal qualifications but must be aged 18 years and over.
