Primary Cluster Committee

Primary cluster committee Governors are volunteers who play an important part in setting the direction of the school, guiding us in our relentless drive to raise standards. Every cluster school committee Governor is passionate about improving the lives of our children. Our committee Governors offer us an excellent balance between acting as critical friends and ensuring accountability in our decision making process. Governors meet formally throughout the year, in addition to making school visits on a termly basis and taking on extra responsibilities as required through key link roles. Staff, parent and co-opted Governors serve on primary cluster school committee.

Mrs Karen Hogg is the Chair of the Cluster School Committee and can be contacted via the Trust Governance Manager by emailing governance@arete.uk or by writing to Mrs Hogg c/o Helmsley Community Primary School, Carlton Lane, York YO62 5HB.
