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 2 new members to our Governing Body for 2018/2019 - Miss Fiona Parker - Head of School (appointed Headteacher from 1 July 2019) and Fr. Michael Hughes our Parish Priest at St. William's Church. Mrs Janet Keefe attended the Governing Body meetings in her role as Consultant Headteacher which ended 19 July 2019.
