What are Junior Governors?

Our Junior Governors are a group of pupils who are elected to represent the views of all children in our school and to ensure that all pupils’ voices are heard. They work hard together with their peers and alongside adults to try and make the school an even better place and to ensure that it is the best it can possibly be.

What do Junior Governors do?

Junior Governors are involved in a wide variety of school improvement activities. Examples include reviewing teaching and learning, looking at how to improve our outdoor provision, how to include nature and harmony in our learning and how to ensure that we look after our wonderful planet and keep it healthy for the future.  An important part of their work is to explore how we make every child in our school feel safe and have a strong sense of belonging within our  community.

Junior Governors are involved in the interview process for new staff and they find out which questions the children would like to ask the candidates. They meet the candidates, ask their questions and feedback their opinions to the formal interview panel.  Junior Governors also meet with our adult governors on a termly basis.

Junior Governors also organise a number of fundraising events and decide on what charities they would like to raise funds for. They also design a pupil survey and analyse the results to further improve our school and community.
