Brackenwood Junior School

Governance

The Local Governing Committee

The Local Governing Committee is responsible for working with the school to ensure that it delivers the highest quality of education for our children. Together with the Headteacher, who is responsible for day-to-day management, they set the school’s aims and policies.

There are currently 4 members of the Governing Committee who bring with them a wide range of expertise from varying professions. The Full Governing Body meets every term, with an additional meeting in the Autumn Term.

Oak Trees MAT Trustees 

Oak Trees Multi Academy Trust, of which our school is part of, consists of members and trustees from across the MAT schools and each school has their own local governing committee.

Information about Oak Trees MAT trustees and governance can be found on the Oak Trees website.

Mr David Stanley

Chair of Governors

My involvement with Brackenwood Juniors and the Governing Body started in 2009 when the first of my two sons started here, they are now 21 and 17! I became Chair of Governors about 9 years ago and have seen the school go through a number of OFSTED inspections and the joining of Oak Trees Multi Academy Trust.
I am still as passionate about the school as I was 15 years ago and continue to do my best to support the Head, staff and children.

Mr Richard Jones

Parent Governor

Both my children loved Brackenwood Infant and Junior schools (my daughter is still at the Junior school). I was always keen to find out more about their school day and was happy to help out when needed. When the opportunity arose to apply to be a governor at the Junior school, I applied straight away. I hope that I bring experience as a parent and volunteer at both schools to my governor role. I am passionate about all elements of governance, from safeguarding to mental health and wellbeing as well as the day to day subjects like Maths and Reading.
