The Governors’ role is to ensure that the Catholicity and development of Our Lady of Lourdes is strong; they ensure the strategic direction of the school and have an overview of the school’s daily actions.

Governors bring a wide variety of expertise from their professional lives. They provide an immense service in directing the school strategically.

The Governors and Headteacher now have greatly increased responsibilities and powers. Complaints, in the first instance, should be referred to the Headteacher. Matters which remain unresolved will then be referred to the Chair of Governors who can be contacted via the school.
