Meet the Governors
Basnett Street Nursery School Governing Body
Basnett Street Nursery School is proud to have a highly dedicated and talented team of Governors who work incredibly hard for our school community.
The Governing Body has a legal responsibility for the Nursery School and works with the Headteacher to set the vision and strategic aims of the school and to monitor and evaluate performance. Our Governing Body is made up of members who are drawn from the school, parents, the LA and our local community. All Governors regularly attend training courses to update their knowledge, understanding and skills to fulfil their individual roles and responsibilities within the Governing Body. They fully support the school on visits and join in celebrations and special events.
Parent Governors are parents who are attending nursery school at the time of their appointment. Parents can express an interest when there is a vacancy and all parents are eligible. Staff Governors are elected by staff of the school, Local Authority representatives are elected by Lancashire County Council and Co-opted Governors are elected by the Governing Body based on their skills and experience relevant to the school.
Full Governing Body Meetings are held termly, three times a year. In addition there are termly Resources and Curriculum committee meetings held.
If you would like any further information about our Governing Body, please speak to the Headteacher or ring the school office - 01282-457235.
