Have you considered being a school governor at Our Lady of Walsingham Catholic School?

Ofsted Rated: Good. The Governors work with the
headteacher and senior team to: 1) Ensure there is a
strategic vision. 2) Monitor and support the progress
of the school plan. 3) Monitor the school’s finances.
We are looking for people to join our experienced,
friendly and organised Governing Board. We will help
you understand the role of the Governing Board and
how your experience and skills can support the school.
The commitment is to attend five Board meetings a
year and three school visits as part of our monitoring.
For more details, please contact any of the following:
