Killingholme Primary School

Together with the Headteacher, Governors help to plan the direction for the school. Governors decide how the school budget is spent and they decide together on school policies.

Governors monitor how things are going in the school and they challenge the school when aspects could be improved and they respond to inspection findings.

Governors hear appeals from parents and they respond to complaints.

Governors also produce an annual report for parents and the Governors meet together at least once a term, although there are other smaller meetings at different times each term.

At Killingholme Primary School, we value and celebrate the diversity of our school community. We believe that a governing body composed of individuals with varied backgrounds, experiences, and perspectives strengthens our strategic leadership and supports better decision‑making for all pupils.

In line with the Department for Education’s recommendation that schools must ensure that individuals cannot be identified, it has been agreed as a governing body not to publish the diversity information of the members of the Governing Body. However, our governing body remains committed to increasing representation, promoting equality, and ensuring that our decisions reflect the needs and strengths of our community. We regularly review our governance diversity profile to inform recruitment, training, and succession planning.
