The Governors have a major role in the leadership and management of the school. They are expected to act as the school’s critical friend: being accountable for the use of public money. The Governors monitor the performance of the school, the budget and the condition of the building. The Governors are organised into smaller committees who meet regularly:
Finance - Chair: Dr Richard Bull
Health & Safety / Premises - Chair: Mr Richard Gilson
The Curriculum - Chair: Mrs Karen Bull
Pay and Personnel - Chair: Mr Richard Gilson
The full Governing Body meets every half term and the sub-committees meet every term.
Rebecca Ryan is an associate Governor.
If you would like to contact any of the Governors, you can do so either via letter to the school office, email on info@dronfield-jun.derbyshire.sch.uk or call school on 01246 413145.
