WHAT A GOVERNOR DOES
Manea Governing Body are working hard to ensure the children at Manea Community Primary School are given the best opportunities and the school is led well.
We have three meetings each term where we meet with the headteacher to discuss and challenge the school in its performance in all areas. We are all volunteers who want to invest our time and commitment to the school and the young people in our community. During the meetings we carry out our statutory duties as well as making decisions about the budget, property work and recruitment to the school. Performance data is a focus in all the education focussed meetings.
We take part in interviewing for new members of staff, meeting with the current staff about their work and holding the leadership to account through reviewing the school development priorities. Each priority is monitored termly by the governors. We also have governors with specific responsibilities in safeguarding and child protection, Pupil Premium working party and a named governor as the link for children in the care system.
You will see below the timetable for the meetings for this year.

Governors are each linked to a member of staff in the school to discuss priorities from the School Development Plan. Governors and members of staff meet each term to discuss the impact of their role on these priority areas. The School Development Plan is also a key agenda item in all governor meetings.
ALL MEETINGS TAKE PLACE AT SCHOOL AT 6.30 pm
