Spaldwick School where every day is a chance to LEARN and SUCCEED
Governor Vision
The aim of the Governing body is that learning at Spaldwick will be boundless and irresistible; children will be inspired to become outstanding learners and maximise their full potential. They will have the resilience and perseverance to take risks and try new challenges, aspiring to be the best they can be whilst having fun. The teamwork provided by staff, parents, students & governors will have high expectations and be the foundation to our success.
We aim to:
- Develop the Governing body to provide more challenge, rigour and strategic support to the school
- Develop a more visible and transparent style of governorship within the school community
- Build sustainable and supportive links between Governors and school staff
- Progressively improve our Ofsted inspection ratings
- Improve our year on year achievement levels
