As well as the commitment to attending these meetings, governors are involved in many aspects of school life such as meetings with pupils and parents, lesson visits, monitoring the school improvement agenda, meetings with school staff and attending our school fundraising events.
There are several categories of governor, appointed by different groups that have an interest in the school. These are Community governors, Parents, and Staff. All governors have equal status, however they are appointed.
Our Parent governors are elected by parents. Staff governors are elected by school staff. Community governors are appointed by the Olympus Remuneration and Nominations Committee on behalf of the Olympus Board of Trustees.
