Our School Governors play a vital role in deciding the strategic direction of the school. They all bring many different skills with them.

 

Message from the Governors

The Parents of children are the lifeblood of a school and the Governors of Old Sodbury School extend their welcome to you all.

Our role is to enable the school to provide the children with the best start in their education and in life. We strive to do this first through the appointment and encouragement of the school staff.

At Old Sodbury we are proud of our Headteacher, teachers and non-teaching staff. They are a lively, enthusiastic, skilled and, above all, committed team.

The Governors have a broad range of responsibilities concerning almost every aspect of the school's life and aspirations. With the staff and parents, we aim by our decisions to foster a thriving school community in which each child achieves their own potential in a happy, caring environment.
