Local Governance Committee:

Introduction

Our Local Governance Committee (LGC) plays a pivotal role in enhancing the educational experience and overall well-being and governance of students, parents, and staff within our school community. 

Our LGC fulfils a key objective of governance which aims to ensure the highest quality practice and effective outcomes for all our students. Further, the LGC focusses on enriching the educational journey of our students and strengthening the bonds within our school community. Each LGC member has a specific focus which guides their work with staff and students; we align these areas with our School Development Plan and Self-Evaluation. 

By working collaboratively, we are not only enhancing the educational experience but also nurturing a thriving and cohesive school community. Together, we are building a school family where every student feels supported, motivated, and inspired to achieve their full potential.
