Committee Structure.
The Governance of the School is achieved via three permanent committees. These are:
| Committee | Chair | Membership | Purpose |
| Full Governing Body (FGB) | Mr I. Moffat | All Governors | All Business |
| Finance & Personnel (F&P) | Mr P. Lilja | Nominated Governors | To oversee Finance and Personnel issues and to make recommendations to the FGB |
| Head Teacher Performance Review | Mr P. Lilja | Nominated Governors plus an external adviser | To agree annual targets and review the performance of the Head Teacher. |
Our Instrument of Government.
As a Church of England School the format of the Governing Body has to be approved by both East Sussex County Council and The Diocese of Chichester. This is done via the Instrument of Government which can be viewed here:
The Instrument of Government describes various 'types' of Governor and these are:
| Type | Elected/Non elected |
| The Head Teacher | Non elected/ex-officio |
| The Incumbent or Priest in Charge of the Church of St Mary the Virgin, NInfield | Non elected/ex-officio |
| Parent Governor | Nominated & elected by the parents |
| Staff Governor | Nominated & elected by the staff |
| Foundation Governor | Nominated by the Parcochial Church Council (PCC) of St Mary the Virgin, Ninfield |
| Co-Opted Governor | Nominated and elected by the Full Governing Body |
| Local Authority Governor | Nominated by LA and elected by the Full Governing Body |
| Associate Governors | Elected by the Full Governing Body to perform a particular project or activity. Associate Governors have no voting rights on the FGB. |
If you would like more information on how the Governing Body works you will find it in our annual Governor's Hanbook. This also lists the responsibilities of individual Governors for the current year.
Full Governing Body Meetings.
We normally hold six FGB meetings per year, one per term. The minutes of these meetings are published once they have been finalised and approved by the FGB at the next meeting. As the minutes are approved we will make them available via this web site. Approved minutes can be accessed by selecting the date of the meeting.
