Governing Body

Aims, Ethos and Vision

of our Governing Body

​

At Burnhope Primary School our Local Governing Body wants every child to enjoy learning and develop confidence, independence and a feeling of self-worth.  Governors ask questions, gather information and help make decisions about the school. Our school’s Governing Body meets in school once every term.  Under our current Governance structure all financial decision for the school are made at Trustee level.

​

Together, we aim to provide a caring, supportive, stimulating environment in which all our children can develop into thoughtful, capable individuals.

​

We make learning vivid and real, engaging all our learners through the provision of a rich and varied curriculum and inspirational teaching. We have high expectations of each individual, aiming to raise aspirations and break down barriers to success.

​

Our vision is to be at the heart of our local community, fostering a warm sense of belonging through trust and understanding. We want to encourage every individual to reach for the stars and aim to support families to achieve their full potential.
