Governors
Governors play an important role in the life of the school taking a long term strategic view of the way the school is developing over the next few years.
The diverse backgrounds of the Astbury St. Marys school governors bring a wealth of experience to the governing body, all with ultimately the same aim to move the school forwards with security and consistency and to equip the pupils with the knowledge and skills they will require when they leave us to go on to their secondary schools.
Governors play an important role in the life of the school taking a long term strategic view of the way the school is developing over the next few years. We work in conjunction with the head teacher and CDAT to implement the statutory school development plan.
