Governing Body

At Llanfair Primary School, our governors work closely with the headteacher and staff to help ensure every child receives the best possible education in a safe, caring, and supportive environment.

Governors take on a strategic role in the life of the school. They help set the school’s vision and priorities, monitor progress, and support and challenge school leaders to ensure high standards of teaching, learning, and wellbeing.

Their key responsibilities include:

• Setting aims and agreeing policies to support pupil achievement and development
• Overseeing the school budget and staffing structure
• Supporting the headteacher while respecting their role in day-to-day management
• Ensuring the school meets all statutory requirements
• Acting as a link between the school, parents, and the wider community

Governors bring a range of skills and experiences, and are united by a shared commitment to the success and wellbeing of all children at Llanfair.
