School Governing Body
The Governing Body is a vital working part of the school structure, where all aspects of school life is discussed and policy decisions are made.
We have a highly skilled and committed compliment of Governors at Whitehill, who ensure that the school and its staff are well-supported, but equally challenged to continually improve the outcomes for our pupils.
*Please note that there are no material interests arising from relationships between governors or relationships between governors and school staff (including spouses, partners and close relatives).
