Meet Our Governors:
At Bourton-on-the-Water Primary, we have a supportive collection of school governors that represent all aspects of our community. Our board of governors is made up of parent, community and teaching staff governors. We all come together to work as a team to provide the best education for all of our pupils.
As a collective, we work across three committees to ensure stringent running of the Academy:
- Staff and Pupils Committee
- Teaching and Learning Committee
- Finance and Resources Committee
