Governors
The Chair of Governors is Mrs Pat Lewis-Badgett (chair@burtonbradstock.dorset.sch.uk)
The members of the Local Governing Body come from a wide range of backgrounds and have very varied skills and experience - from the world of education and outside.
The chair of governors is currently a trustee of the Minerva Learning Trust.
Non-staff Governors
All continue to undergo training, especially in areas of governance in which they have a particular interest.
All are linked to particular aspects of the School and monitor progress towards the School's Development Plan.
Some, in addition to their role as a governor, give time to the School to provide support for learning.
The role of the Local Governing Body is defined in the Governance Handbook for the Minerva Learning Trust.
The resignation of a parent governor leaves a vacancy which we hope to fill shortly. Anyone interested should contact the School or the Chair of Governors who will be pleased to provide more information. The role of parent governor is not especially onerous but gives the holder a chance to understand more about how the School operates and to provide support and challenge (the key roles of all governors).
