As a school, Walton Lane Nursery School must have a governing body.  It has 3 functions

• To ensure there is a clear vision, ethos and strategic direction for the school.
• To hold the headteacher to account for the educational performance of the school and the nursery school children, and the performance management of school staff.
• To oversee the financial performance of the school and make sure its money is well spent.

We have 10 governors on the governing body

• 1 headteacher
• 2 parent governors
• 1 local authority governor
• 1 staff governor
• 5 co-opted governors

Governors are volunteers who bring a variety of skills and expertise to their role such as knowledge of our local community, financial skills or being a parent!  All governors share a commitment to the value of maintained nursery school education and wanting our school to keep on developing.  If you are interested in becoming a governor for Walton Lane Nursery School please contact head@waltonlane.lancs.sch.uk
