School Governors

Your Governors come from different backgrounds, reflecting the many interest groups in the school, but we have one important thing in common: we are dedicated to ensuring that the children at Churchill Community School have the best possible education.
The following types of governor are or can be represented:

  • Parent governors - selected by election (or appointment if insufficient people stand for election) and drawn from parents and carers of children at the school.
  • Staff governors - selected by election from teaching and support staff paid to work at the school
  • Community governors - appointed by the governing body to represent community interests
  • LEA governors - appointed by the LEA
  • Sponsor governors - discretionary category appointed by the governing body from individuals who have made significant (financial) contributions to the school
  • Associate members (not governors) - appointed by the governing body to attend committee meetings and/or full governing body meetings due to their particular skills or experience


Foundation status :

The Governors unanimously voted to adopt Foundation Status with effect from 1st November 2007. The school will become Churchill Community Foundation School & Sixth Form Centre.
