Governors
The role of the Governing Body is to set the strategic direction of St Francis in conjunction with the schools' Senior Leadership team, to safeguard the public interest in each school and to ensure that those who are directly responsible for day-to-day management (the Headteacher, Assistant Head and Senior Leaders) are accountable for decisions and actions taken.
The Governing Body has three core functions:
1. To ensuring clarity of vision, ethos and strategic direction;
2. To holding executive leaders to account for the educational performance of the organisation and its pupils, and the effective and efficient performance management of staff; and
3. To oversee the financial performance of the organisation and making sure its money is well spent.
