Governors

Who are your Governors and what do they do?
The Local Governing Body (LGB) at Staples Road Primary School comprises of parents, staff and members of the community. We have volunteered to support the whole School Community through monitoring and evaluating the strategic direction of the School and the provision for our children and in being a 'critical friend' to all staff. See the document 'What does a Governing Body do?' below for more details.
You can contact the Governing Body via the School Office, at srsgovernors@gmail.com or find us in the playground. We look forward to meeting you at either the Macmillan coffee morning in September, Parents evening in the Autumn and Spring terms or at the Open Evening in July. The annual survey will be held in June and we appreciate your feedback.
