Where Pupils Shine
The Governing Body of Waterloo Primary School
Welcome to the Governor Section - We are very proud to be Governors of Waterloo Primary School.
The Governors play a crucial role in the life and work of our school. Governors make decisions about many aspects of the school, including the curriculum, staffing and finance.
The Governing Body is made up of parent governors, elected by the parents of pupils at the school, staff governors including the Headteacher, Local Authority appointed Governors and Community Governors.
The Governing Body has 3 core functions:
Our team is made up of a variety of people from different backgrounds but who all share the same passionate belief that Waterloo Primary School should be a happy and successful school where every child is given the opportunity to reach their full potential, to know their place in the world and develop the necessary knowledge and skills to contribute successfully to the modern world.
