Governors will need to log in to see the pages in this area of the site. The Governors of Stratford School Academy come from a wide range of backgrounds. The Governors work collaboratively with the school, each bringing their own unique experiences to support the school and to ensure that the pupils are getting the best possible education. The members of the Governing Body work collectively to perform a strategic role and contribute to key elements such as:
- Discussing and setting strategic direction and policies
- Setting the vision, values and objectives for the school
- Monitor and evaluate the progress that the Academy is making towards it’s set aims and objectives.
- To be a ‘critical friend’ offering challenge, support and guidance to the Head teacher.
We are fortunate to have an active Governing Body who take a strategic role in ensuring that the Academy provides the best possible learning provision for our pupils.
