Full Governing Body Meeting January 26th 2015

On Monday 26^th January we held a meeting of the Full Governing Body (FGB).

Mrs Comer gave her termly Headteacher’s report, and presented data from across the school showing pupil progress in reading, writing and maths.  Nationally we have a new, more challenging curriculum and there will also be changes to how children are assessed. Mrs Comer's reports are always very clear and thorough, and the Governors asked lots of questions about the new assessment methods. I am delighted that the children across the school are working so hard and making good progress.

Mrs Comer also reported that our pupil attendance in January was 97.1% and we have 80 pupils at the school.

The Governors approved updates to eight policies, and heard reports of learning walks, visits and meetings that individual governors have made since the last FGB. We discussed potential improvements to the playground, and looked at the school website and prospectus. 

All Governors are actively involved in the life of the school.

Our next meeting will be on Monday 9^th March. This will be our annual joint meeting of Governors and Staff where we take time out together to discuss issues of strategic importance to the school.
