• Overseeing the financial performance of the school and making sure its money is well spent
The Full Governing Body meetings are once a term and are held at the Castlefield Campus site in Hulme from 6pm until 8pm. There also have two committees and most governors would be a member of one of the committees.
• Resources (e.g. Finance, Premises, Pay, Personnel, Headteachers Appraisal)
