Governors
The Role of a School Governor
School governors are people from the school and local community who wish to make a positive contribution to the education of children at Rosehill Junior School. They must be aged 18 or over at the time of their appointment. They are elected to serve on the Governing body for a set period of time.
Our governors have a wide range of knowledge and experience between them which is required to ensure the Head Teacher and the school make the right decisions for benefit of the children and staff at the school.
Governors have an extremely important part to play in raising school standards and expectations by ensuring accountability, setting strategic direction and evaluating the school's performance.
Within our board, Associate Governors do not have voting rights.
We currently have a vacancy on our board of Governors for a Parent Governor. If you would like to apply for this role, or nominate another parent who you believe would be suitable for the role, then please complete the form below:
