Are you interested in becoming a governor

St Anthony’s School currently has 2 vacancies for co-opted governors. No special skills are required other than a desire to make a difference and enthusiasm. Governors play a vital role in raising standards and monitoring the performance of the school as such you will be required to make important decisions on all aspects of school.

We are particularly interested in appointing a governor with Health & Safety background. If you would like to become a Governor or know somebody that might then please contact the clerk to the governors.
