Vacancies for New Governors

Foundation-Governor-Letter-2025-1-1 (2)

Local Authority Governor Letter 2025-2026

Parent-Governor-Nominations (7)

We currently have vacancies on our federation governing board for 3 categories of governor: parent governor, local authority governor and foundation governor.

It is very rewarding being part of the school governors and we are looking for new members with a variety skills that can help support the schools. The time commitment is approximately 6 meetings a year, plus any visits to school that you do in between to support staff and school leaders.

Attached to this post you will find the 3 letters detailing how to apply for each of these roles and a bit about the roles.

PARENT GOVERNOR: if you are interested in this role, there is an application form which needs to be brought back to school by 9am Friday 25th September. If you would like a hard copy of this form, please email the office and we will send one home with your child. It doesn’t matter which school your child attends, as the governing board supports both schools. You will be voted for based on your skill set and what you can bring to the board.

The other two roles are applied for directly via the links on the letters.

Happy Summer Holidays

We would like to wish you all a wonderful summer holiday!

Good luck to all of our year 6 pupils who will be starting secondary school in September and to our other leavers. You have all been absolutely fantastic and we will miss you all very much.

What a wonderful year we have had!

Poppy Cascade Project

This week, our children and staff had the pleasure of contributing to the Myddle Community Poppy Cascade Project.  We helped attach crochet and knitted poppies, made by volunteers within our community, which will help form a stunning display to be unveiled in November.  This was a meaningful opportunity for our pupils to reflect, connect with local history and feel proud to be part of this project.

A heartfelt thank you to our wonderful community for involving us in the special project – we can’t wait to see the finished cascade later this year.

If your child takes school dinners but you do not receive an email, please let us know and we will ensure you have the information you need.

Thank you to everyone who has already made payment – your support is much appreciated.
