Our Governors

The Role of School Governors

School governors play a vital role in promoting high standards of educational achievement. This is in the interests of current and future pupils.

Every school in Lancashire has its own governing board. Members of governing boards include:

  • School staff

  • Parents of pupils

  • Members of the public from all walks of life.

Governors are committed to serving the best interests of the school. As unpaid voluntary public servants, they help to sustain their school’s identity and provide a link with the local community.
