Our Governors work as a corporate body, in partnership with the Headteacher and school staff to bring about school improvement.
The purpose of the governing body is to help secure the best possible education and care for all pupils by:
– Providing a strategic view
– Acting as a critical friend
– Ensuring accountability
Collecting and publishing Governing Board Diversity data
The governors of The Westcliffe Federation believe it is important that they reflect the diversity of the school communities they serve. A diverse governing body promotes inclusive school environments and provides diverse role models for staff and young people.
The governors are currently collecting data on the diversity of the board, including data on age, gender and ethnicity. They will use that data to inform their recruitment and training needs and ensure there is always a diverse range of perspectives around the table to support robust decision making.
Due to our relatively small governing board, we will not publish this diversity data online as individual governors could be identified and we have a legal obligation to protect their personal data
