Governors
Rosehill Infant and Nursery School Governing Board
The role of the school Governing Board is a strategic one and its key functions are to:
- Set the vision, ethos and strategic direction for Rosehill Infant & Nursery School.
- Hold the school leaders to account for the performance of pupils and performance of staff.
- Ensure finances are well spent and represent value for money.
The Governing Board is made up of governors from a range of backgrounds who volunteer their time to support the school. Staff governors, including the head teacher and teaching and non-teaching staff, make up the remainder of the governing board. They each bring valuable knowledge and expertise to the role and often take on specific responsibilities within the governing body. In addition to attending Full Governing Board meetings at least 6 times a year, all governors are members of the Resources Committee which also meet 6 times a year.
The Chair of the Full Governing Board is Karen Clark. If you need to contact the Chair please email Chair@rosehill.derby.sch.uk
