Declarations of Interest

Our governing board is committed to acting with integrity and impartiality. To this end, we must publish a register of our governors’ relevant interests or confirmation that they have none.  These interests are anything that might influence a governor's decision making, or affect their ability to act in an impartial way.

For example, if a governor

  • was a governor at another school

  • worked for a company that the school might engage the services of (a catering or payroll provider, etc.)

  • had a personal relationship with any staff at the school (spouse, partner, relative, etc.)

  • had a partner who supplies a service to the school
