Governors
The Governing Body has a largely strategic role in the running of our school. The main body meet twice a term and the committees twice a term. Our committees are: Finance, Personnel, Premises, Curriclum/Parents and Community. Elected parent governors server a four-year term of office. You may view our policies by opening up the links at the bottom of this page.
Our present governors are:
AMBER BEARE Chair of Governors

"I joined the governing body to fulfil the role of premises governor at the beginning of the 2008/9 academic year. Throughout the previous year I was chair of the Nether Green Infant School Eco Group which started to look at various premises issues so it seemed an obvious step to fill the role of premises governor when it became available. I have three children all of whom will eventually go through Nether Green Infant School and I therefore wanted to make a positive contribution to the continued improvement of the school."

It is also vital that all parents are able to put their views forward through the parent Governors."

I am interested in the wellbeing and education of children through my role as a foster carer for the local authority and therefore have an interest in, and knowledge of looking after children with all sorts of special needs and hoped that I may be able to put this knowledge into use as part of my role as Governor."
