School Governors
St Benedict's School Governors
St. Benedict’s Catholic Primary School Governors are dedicated to helping to support the school and helping it to thrive. They are driven by their love for Catholic education in general and St Benedict’s in particular. The Governing Body actively support the ethos of the school and endeavour at all times to ensure that this is an integral part of all aspects of school life.
St. Benedict’s School Governors are enthusiastic and committed people who ensure the requirements of the national curriculum are met by the school and set targets, monitor achievement and ensure standards are improving. Our Governors are rooted in the school community and have a passionate interest in education and wish to both challenge and support the school to be the best that it can possibly be. They include people from the world of education and business, representatives of local community groups and religious bodies.
