OUR GOVERNING BODY

• The Governing Body at Bridgelea and its committees meet once a term.
• Governors serve a four year term of office and may seek to be re-appointed.
• Parents have the opportunity to stand for election as a parent governor and so become involved in the running of the school.
• The Governing Body is also made up of a representative from the Local Authority, Staff Members and other Co-opted members from the wider community and businesses.
• The Governors have a general responsibility for determining the policy and effective management of the school, acting within the framework set by national legislation and by the policies of the Local Authority. However, the Headteacher controls the day-to-day running of the school.
• Ultimately, the governors answer to the parents and the Department of Education for the running of the school.
