Interested in becoming a Banwell school governor?
School governors play a vital role in organisational and educational development. While the role is voluntary, it requires commitment, dedication and an interest in the long-term success of all pupils, as well as the school itself.
You just need to be interested in supporting our school, community and the educational outcomes of our pupils. In all decision making, the governors are committed to ensuring that the best interests of all children in the school are the highest priority.
