Governance Information and Documents

Welcome to the Governors’ page.  We hope that you will find the following information and links informative. If you require any further information, or would like to contact us, all Governors can be contacted through the school office, or, email the Chair of Governors Tom James on chair.governors@marshbaldonschool.co.uk Your comments and suggestions are always welcomed. We would very much like to hear from you.

Every school is required to have a Governing Board: our governing board is made up of volunteers from the local community, parents, the Headteacher and a staff member. Together we have a collective responsibility for making sure that all children in our school receive the best education possible in a safe, caring, and as a Church of England primary school, Christian environment. The Headteacher is responsible for the day-to-day management of the school. The Governing Board is strategic, which means that we plan for the future and consider how the school can achieve its targets and aspirations.

At Marsh Baldon CE Primary School we have a committee governance structure. This means that we have a Performance Committee and a Resources Committee both of which meet 6 times per year.
