Governors
Governing Boards of Catholic voluntary aided schools are the employers and admissions body for the school. The board consists of members drawn from a range of backgrounds including parents, staff, the local authority, the parish and wider school community.
Our governors have built a successful partnership with the teachers and parents at the school. This has allowed the Governing Body to work together with the school community for the benefit of the children at Christ the King.
'Governors offer effective challenge and support to leaders.' -Ofsted
The Governing Body includes two Parent Governors elected by the parents of the school. It also includes a Staff Governor, elected by the school’s staff. These governors serve for a period of four years. There are also Foundation Governors appointed for a four year period by the Diocese of Salford. In addition, there is an LA Governor appointed by Manchester City Council.
The Governing Body meets at least once a term and governors also attend other committee meetings. Their role involves:
- Maintaining the Catholicity of the school;
- The general running of the school;
- Policy development;
- Planning the school budget;
- Selecting and appointing staff;
- Supporting school discipline;
- Producing an annual report for parents;
- School development planning.
