Welcome to our Governors’ section.

Our team of school Governors work tirelessly with a single goal: To challenge St Joseph’s to improve in every possible way.  Governors meet regularly throughout the school year to make sure they are fully up-to-date with all developments and plan for future improvements. Although they are busy people, they also often visit school during the day to see what is going on and to talk to pupils. Governors give their time freely, if you are interested in being a school governor please contact Mrs Elder at school on 01706873177.

Resources Committee - This committee meets to discuss the schools finances and staffing.
