Working Together for the Best Outcomes for Every Child

At Knighton Church in Wales Primary School, our Governing Body plays an important role in helping our school thrive. Working closely with the Headteacher and staff, our governors provide leadership, support and challenge to ensure that every pupil receives a high-quality education in a safe, caring and inclusive environment.

Our governors bring a wide range of skills, knowledge and experience to the school. Together, they help shape our school's vision, set priorities for improvement and ensure that the decisions we make reflect the best interests of our pupils and wider school community.
