Governance

Welcome to the Governors’ section of the Sheringham High School website which I hope you will find interesting and informative.

In 2021 we joined the Synergy Trust to become part of a larger and stronger group, which comprises four High Schools - Sheringham, Stalham, Litcham and Reepham, as well as eleven primary schools.

The governing body of Sheringham High School consists of 8 governors which includes 2 parent governors.

The Local Governing Body meets at least six times per academic year.  At each meeting we receive a report from the Head of School, updates on Pupil Premium, Safeguarding, Finance, Personnel and Curriculum. Other items are discussed or approved at specific times of the year, for example exam results, planning for school improvement, monitoring standards and reviewing the budget.

We also attend public events such as the Year 6 transition evening, the Sixth Form open evening, school performances, the annual awards evenings and parents’ evenings.  Please come and talk with Governors while you are at these events. They will be wearing governor lanyards.

In addition, some Governors are designated as responsible for safeguarding, SEND, health and safety and attendance. In this role Governors regularly come into school to meet with staff and students.
