The friends of bourne
The Governing Body has a duty in law to ensure that the College is efficiently managed within the delegated budget, to achieve the highest possible standards of educational achievement. Governors discharge this responsibility by monitoring College activities and providing support, where appropriate, to the Head Teacher and her Staff. All Governors are volunteers.
We are fortunate to be overseen and supported by an experienced and knowledgeable governing body. A full list of members can be found below along with a role profile and an attendance record for the previous academic year. We have four governance committees:
- Curriculum and Achievement, chaired by Andrew Knowles
- Personnel, chaired by Diane Shepherd
- Finance, chaired by Shelagh Legrave
- Premises, chaired by Nigel Brown
The Clerk to the Governors, Mrs Emma Hawkins, can be contacted via the following email address: clerk@bourne.org.uk
