Governors
At Ingfield we have a very active governing body with link Governors attached to various aspects of school management.
Governors work with the Senior Leadership Team to ensure that the school delivers high quality Education and Care to all pupils that meets Ofsted standards for outstanding support.
We have a scheme of delegation document for all Governors and the roles and expectations are clearly defined in our articles and instruments. Please contact our Governor Clerk should you require any further information.
We are now seeking new governors, please do get in touch if you are interested in supporting the management of an exceptional school.
