ODBST Scheme of Delegation

  • ODBST Scheme of Delegation

The Local Governing Body of Longwick C of E Combined School

 

We are members of the Oxford Diocesan Bucks Schools Trust and the governance of the Trust belongs to the main ODBST Board of Trustees. Above is our Scheme of Delegation. This also includes our Constitution and Terms of Reference. Paper copies can be obtained through the school office. You can also find details of the Trust Board and details of our Trust Governance by clicking here.

 

In order to discharge these responsibilities, the Trustees appoint people who are locally based to serve on a local governing body which has been established to ensure the good governance of the school.

 

The Longwick governing body is made up of 11 members: the Head Teacher; 3 Foundation governors appointed by the Diocese; 3 trust governors drawn from the local area, selected because of their skills and interests; 1 staff governor elected by staff members and 3 elected parent governors. With the exception of the Head Teacher, governors all hold office for a period of four years.

The Role of the Local Governing Body

 

The Governing Body works with the Headteacher and the staff to make sure the school provides good quality education for all of its children, and constantly strives to improve. Governors need to set high expectations and ask challenging questions.

 

The key roles of a Governing Body are to:

 

  • Ensure children and staff are safe whilst in education
  • Provide strategic direction for the school
  • Hold the Headteacher and Senior Leadership Team to account for how the school is run and for children's outcomes
  • Ensure budgets are spent wisely.
