The Governing Body
The Governing Body of The Children’s Hospital School is representative of a wide range of very committed personnel, who give freely of their time and expertise.
“Governors have a better understanding of school provision through an increase in focus visits linked to school improvement priorities, which has led to effective challenge of leaders”
