Governance & Governors

At Sutton Manor Community Primary School, we govern without committees. Our full board meets six times a year as a minimum. There are committees that meet as and when required in terms of reference for pay, complaints, and disciplinary actions.

Minutes of the governor meeting are kept at the school office.
