Governor News

David has asked Margaret to take over the co-ordination of the ‘Living and Loving’ working party that was started last year by Fr. Barry. We’re hoping that the original group will still be able to continue this important work. If you would like to find out more about this working group then look here or alternatively contact Margaret.

David is starting work with Margaret and Brenda Allen (Lancashire) to review the staff attendance policy.

David is in the process of asking Bridget if she will co-ordinate a group of governors in the task of communicating the work of the school to other interested parties.  An immediate action is to write an article for the Lancashire Evening News to report on the school’s inspection success last term.

If you want to follow the progress of this group you can take a look here.

David has asked if a number of Governors could form a review group to consider changes to St.Mary’s mission statement. Joe has kindly offered to co-ordinate this task. This review is part of an annual reflection on the developments that have taken place last year and whether our current policies and statements need adjusting. This task should be completed by the 29th Jan 9(07)and will probably take a couple of hours of Governor time.

Please contact Joe if you are able to help with this task.

A working area for this project can be found here. Even if you can’t help with the re-drafting you can always take a look at the groups progress by visiting this working area!
