Introductory messages from our Chair of Governors


Jonny Downing:

I'm really pleased to take up the role of Chair of Governors.

I have served on the governing body since 2010, joining to contribute financial skills. I’m an accountant by profession.
I have 3 children who graduated from Lane End over recent years. The school prepared them brilliantly for their next steps.
I continue to support and challenge Claire and the leadership team, helping them to make Lane End such a great place for our children to learn.

GOVERNORS' POLICY FOR OPEN GOVERNMENT

Lane End Governors consider the active participation of the parents to be fundamental to all aspects of school life.


The Governing Body meets formally once a term to go over the Headteacher's report and discuss matters raised by the Chief Education Officer. They may also meet on other occasions. Parents / Guardians will be notified of all meetings in the School Newsletters/calendar.


Parents / Guardians are welcome to attend as observers but may not vote. However they may be invited by the Governors to make comment. They will be asked to leave if confidential matters are to be discussed. Under the Education (School Governing Bodies) Regulations 1981 copies of the Agendas and Minutes relating to any meeting of the Governing Body of the school are available at school for inspection by parents / guardians if they so desire.
