Welcome to Middleton Community Primary School Governors' Pages

Message from John Reeve Chair of the Governing Body.

Welcome to our website which should provide, either directly or through links, all you need to know about Middleton Community Primary School. Briefly, the role of the governing body is to provide strategic leadership and accountability in schools. It has three key functions:

*Overseeing the financial performance of the school and making sure its money is well spent;

*Holding the headteacher to account for the educational performance of the school and its pupils;

*Ensuring clarity of vision, ethos and strategic direction.

This is important work, but it is also interesting and rewarding.

The key to a good education is having access to a broad and progressive curriculum which, together with being happy and safe, enables children to reach their full potential. This is something that all the staff at the school aspire to deliver.

We welcome visitors to our school to see how and what the children learn, and how they develop their confidence and independence.
