Hawkedale Primary School is a mainstream, state-funded junior school for boys and girls in Stratton Road, Sunbury
The governing body has general responsibility for the conduct of the school with a view to promoting high standards of educational achievement. It is a rewarding role and no previous experience is necessary. However, in order to be an effective governor there is a requirement to attend training sessions in order to learn about current educational developments and practices.
The role of the governing board is a strategic one and governors meet three times a term to discuss a number of topics, all that fit within the three core functions of a governing body:
- Approving the budget and overseeing the financial performance of the school to make sure money is well spent
- Appointing and holding the headteacher to account for the educational performance of the school and its pupils
- Ensuring clarity of vision, ethos and strategic direction
If you are interested in supporting our school by making one of the most valuable and worthwhile contributions to the education of young people , or would like to know more, please contact Mrs Katie Butler, Chair of Governors, on tel: 01932 789412 or email This email address is being protected from spambots.
