Board of Governors
At Barnet Hill Academy, we are delighted to have an incredibly strong Board of Governors. This includes governors with decades of educational experience in senior education as well as other senior professional and community roles. The Board also includes members with a great deal of experience in school governance: the spiritual knowledge and experience of the members of our Governance Board is strongly evident. As the school grows, we aim to continue to develop our Governance capacity at the school as well as the governors' welcome engagement with parents, the local community and beyond.
Our Governance
The Governing Body at Barnet Hill Academy is made up of a team of committed staff, parents and members of the local community who have responsibility for raising school standards through their three core functions of:
Ensuring a clear vision, ethos and strategic direction are in place,
holding the SLT to account for the educational performance of the school and its pupils; and overseeing the financial performance of the school and making sure it is well spent.
The Headteacher is responsible for the day to day management of the school and the role of the Board of Governors is to provide strategic management, and to act as a “critical friend”, supporting the work of the Headteacher and other staff.
The full Governing Body meets termly and there are also sub-committees that each meet regularly.
