The Role of Governor

A school governor is a volunteer who helps to run the school and ensure high standards of education and care for all our children. They work as part of the governing body to support the head teacher in taking the school in the right direction.

Governors are involved in decisions about all aspects of managing the school – such as setting the school’s vision, ethos and long term goals, supporting and appointing staff and setting standards in all areas of learning, behaviour and curriculum content. They provide accountability by overseeing finances and making sure money is well spent and ensuring the upkeep of buildings and the educational environment. Together with the head teacher they are responsible for safeguarding the children.

The most important qualities for being a governor are enthusiasm, commitment and an interest in education. If you are interested in becoming a governor at our school federation or any Tower Hamlets school, please contact Governor Services below:

Federation
​In January 2022 Children's House federated with Rachel Keeling Nursery School. 
The two schools remain separate but share one executive head teacher and one governing body.
​Our Governor, Aminul Hoque, is a qualified British Sign Language user. He and his sister wrote and illustrated this wonderful book. 
​You can borrow copies of it in school. ​
