Governor Role

Governors have a strategic role in the development of the school and we are delighted to be able to reap the benefits of such commitment from this group.

Governors have particular responsibilities. For example, one Governor takes responsibility for Inclusion, another for Assessment and one for Mathematics. They visit the school, keeping up to date with developments in these areas.

The governing board is made up of a combination of appointed, elected and co-opted governors which represent the various groups that have a vested interest in the success of the school, i.e. parents, LA, staff and the wider community.


​Parliament has given school governing boards a range of duties and the power to carry them out. Broadly these are:

  • helping to establish the aims and policies of the school, and how standards of education can be improved;
  • helping to draw up the School Improvement Plan;
  • helping to decide how to spend the school budget;
  • making sure that the National Curriculum and Religious Education are taught;
  • acting as a link between the local community and the school

Welcome from the Chair of Governors

Dear Parents & Carers

​We at Tickford Park Primary School are extremely proud of our school. We provide a safe, stimulating and exciting learning environment in which our children thrive. Our highly motivated staff strive to help every child reach his or her academic potential, while also developing into happy, well rounded and respectful children. We encourage our children to express themselves, develop independence and work collaboratively with each other. We aim to prepare our children for the challenges of secondary school education and beyond.

We have a track record of delivering academic success. Our high levels of attainment are a reflection of the quality of education provided within our School and we aim to instil a life-long love of learning that will stay with our children throughout their lives.

We are not complacent as a School and all staff and Governors are committed to building on our successes. We also value the strong partnerships we have built up between children, parents, staff and governors.

To discover more we invite you to come and see us. The children and staff will be delighted to show you why their school is so special. Please make an appointment with the school office and we look forward to welcoming you to our School.

Best wishes
Emma Whyle & Stephen Fortune
Co-Chairs of Governors
