CHAIR'S WELCOME Dear Parents, Carers and Guardians, As Chair of Governors, I would like to welcome you to our amazing school. Our Governing Body is comprised of a group of local people who are passionate about, and ardent supporters of our school. Our members are parents, school staff, Church representatives, Local Authority and business people. Collectively, we aim to ensure that the school is an excellent educational establishment, that our integral values and Christian ethos remain at our core, that we continue to be at the heart of the Linthwaite community and that we celebrate the uniqueness of our school. The Governing Body works with the school by supporting and challenging the headteacher and senior management team to ensure that excellent education, pastoral support and extra curricular activities are afforded to all our children. It is also our role, in partnership with the school, to work together to continuously raise the attainment and achievement of our children. We continually research and implement new creative approaches and technologies to best meet the needs of our children. I and all the members of the Governing Body would love to hear from you about any aspect of school life and about your ideas for improvement or to offer congratulation. I look forward to meeting you soon. Yours sincerely, Claire Horne
