Governance at Heritage High School

Our School Governing Board is dedicated to supporting the students, staff, infrastructure at Heritage High School. The School Governing Board consists of volunteers who give their time and commitment freely. All our Governors are passionate about ensuring the best possible outcomes for every student.

The job of the School Governing Board is to support and challenge the School’s senior leadership team. They play an important role in supporting in raising achievement and enhancing the life choices of our students.

In addition, School Governors support the vision and ethos of the Trust and School. Locally, Governors focus on strategic functions which are determined by Trustees of The Two Counties Trust Board and within the Governance Structure.

Part of the remit of School Governors is to monitor data and challenge senior leaders to improve the provision for students.

Welcome from the Chair of Governors

On behalf of the whole Governing Body I would like to welcome you. 

The Governing Body consists of nine members, all from various parts of the local community and together with a wealth of experience. We offer support to the Headteacher and the Leadership team in strategic decisions made by the school and to help to shape the vision of the school to ensure that our students receive the best possible educational experience. 

Details of our meetings can be found in the Governors’ section of this website. 

Over the last few years we have overseen improvements in teaching, examination results and student behaviour and well-being. Our aim is that these improvements continue, and the school is judged to be good by OFSTED in the near future. 

We are an inclusive school and are very proud of the academic success of our students and will do everything we can to support students in developing their academic and vocational skills.
