Charlton-on-Otmoor CE Primary School

Please find below links to documents about the School's Governing Body:

The governors’ main responsibilities are to establish the aims and policies of the school; advise on spending the school’s budget; to determine the school’s curriculum policy and make sure that the National Curriculum and that religious education are provided; select the Head Teacher; appoint, promote, support and discipline other staff; provide outside advice and act as a link between the local community and the school.

The governors hold regular formal meetings (usually twice a term). Minutes of meetings are kept and, in order to keep parents informed, a copy of the draft minutes is posted on the school notice board shortly after each meeting. To further inform parents, the Governing body publishes a newsletter each term. 

 Working parties meet as necessary and report to the full governing body for approval of their decisions or recommendations.

Governors are available at any reasonable time to meet with parents or to discuss any matters that need to be raised.  They can be contacted through the school office.
