Governing Body
We have a Governing Body that complements the friendliness and expertise of St. William's school staff.
Our ethos, as governors of the school, is to give positive support, assistance and challenge to ensure that high standards are achieved by the school and are maintained and improved upon.
None of our governors have any material interests arising from relationships between governors or relationships between governors and school staff (including spouses, partners and close relatives).
Governors may be contacted through the school.
We welcomed a new member to our Governing Body for 2019/2020 - Mr Clayton - appointed as staff representative.
