Governors
Welcome to the Rushmore Governors page. This page will tell you who the governors are and what we do.
There are 4 sorts of Governors;
Parent Governors are elected by parents then we have Staff Governors elected by the Teaching & Support Staff then LA Governors who are given to us by the Local Authority and lastly Community Governors who are from the wider community.
At Rushmore we have 2 sub committees:
The Curriculum & Standards and the Finance and Resources Committees. These committees feed back into the full GB meeting. We meet twice a term for Full GB meetings and also committee meetings.
What do school governors do?
-
Supporting the school in planning for the future and setting targets for school improvement
-
Promoting high standards of educational attainment
-
Challenging and supporting the Head Teacher
-
Planning, reviewing and approving the schools budget

Developing and reviewing policies and most importantly monitoring pupil achievement and ensuring standards improve.
