Mora Primary & Nursery School

Making a difference

Meet the Governors

 

Mora: Chair of Governors Statement

On behalf of the Governing Body, welcome to Mora Primary and Nursery School. We are a school that is passionate about ‘making a difference’ in the lives of our children and our community. At Mora our children, staff, parents, carers and governors work together to create an inclusive environment that is respectful of similarities and differences in all aspects of our diverse school.
 
As a Governing Body we provide both support and challenge across all areas of the school to ensure all children benefit from our vision and aims. As Governors, our most important role is ensuring the safety, welfare and education of our pupils.
 
The governing body consists of a balanced mix of parents, staff and representatives from the Local Authority and outside the school community. The full governing body, and our committees, meet regularly throughout each term, with the school’s leadership team, to ensure the smooth-running of all aspects of the school. We support the senior leadership team, teachers and staff in monitoring the children's progress and achievement, how teaching standards are set and maintained, how staff are managed, and how the school is kept safe for children and staff alike. We also monitor the ways in which the school spends its budget, and how that might best be allocated to get the best out of the school’s activities. 
 
Mora’s Governing Body is committed to ensuring that each child at the school is given every chance to learn and develop in a safe, happy and nurturing environment. Mora has been judged a Good school by Ofsted twice in a row–most recently in 2019–the governors are committed to supporting the staff in maintaining this status. We also support them in realising the ambition to be judged Outstanding, a status we feel reflects the school’s incredible atmosphere, dedicated staff and their commitment to help each and every child achieve their full potential academically, emotionally and spiritually.
