Governance at Selston High School

Our School Governing Board is dedicated to supporting the students, staff, infrastructure at Selston High School. The School Governing Board consists of volunteers who give their time and commitment freely. All our Governors are passionate about ensuring the best possible outcomes for every student.

The job of the School Governing Board is to support and challenge the School’s senior leadership team. They play an important role in supporting in raising achievement and enhancing the life choices of our students.

In addition, School Governors support the vision and ethos of the Trust and School. Locally, Governors focus on strategic functions which are determined by Trustees of The Two Counties Trust Board and within the Governance Structure.

Part of the remit of School Governors is to monitor data and challenge senior leaders to improve the provision for students.

Welcome from the Chair of Governors

Selston High School currently have 8 governors, 4 of whom are new to the Governing Body. As a governing body we are keen to recruit more, and if any of you are interested, please contact the school. Governors work with the Headteacher and the school and make decisions about strategic matters, curriculum, recruitment and staffing. We receive regular reports on all matters affecting the school and we meet as a full Governing Body 5 times a year. In addition to this, we make regular visits to school to see departments in action. This involves visiting lessons and speaking to students and staff. By doing this, Governors are able to keep up to date with what is happening in school and find out how national and Two Counties Trust initiatives impact upon your children’s education. We also attend special evenings and concerts.
