Statement from the Chair of Governors

I feel very privileged to have taken on the role of chair of governors and to be working with such a professional team of staff and governors.

Governors are volunteers and our main role is to work with the school ensuring that your children receive the best education in a supportive and safe setting.

At Beacon View Primary Academy, governors, staff, parents and children work together in a happy, creative and aspirational environment with our core values of Respect, Responsibility and Resilience underpinning everything that we do.
 
The Governing Body is involved with our school at every level. This includes finance, safeguarding, premises management and staff appointments. As Governors, we consider our most important role to be the safety, welfare and education of our pupils.

Each and every one of us want the children in our school to achieve high standards across the curriculum. We are justifiably very proud of them and would like to thank the parents who encourage and support their children so admirably. In a school, such as ours, parents take a great interest in their child’s learning and development. During the early years of primary education, academic, personal, social and creative skills are nurtured and developed.
 
Governors are appointed to ensure that objectives are met, and that future planning is both visionary and realistic. We provide strategic direction for the improvement of the school; monitor and evaluate the effectiveness of the school; and hold the school to account for the standards achieved and the quality of education. We are here to support and encourage our Principal, Senior Leadership Team and all school personnel to ensure that every one of our children has access to an enriched education and to all the opportunities that they deserve.

In order to bring about real changes to the lives of our children we, as a Governing Body, are committed to improve outcomes for all children through quality teaching and learning; and to extend the opportunity to create wider opportunities for all children to develop their skills and talents.
