The Governing Body receives its delegation from The Emmanuel School Trust (TEST), which is responsible for setting the vision, ethos and the strategic planning of the school. Their role is to set the overall direction, monitor and evaluate performance and determine key policies.
Our Governing Body is made up of parents, staff (including the Headteacher), Directors of TEST, and other volunteers who all bring different views, experiences and skills. They help to support the Head Teacher as a ‘critical friend’ and offer a broad breadth of skills and expertise. The Governing Body has three sub-committees that meet regularly during the school year with specific remits delegated to them by the Governing Body.
