Welcome to our Governors' section.
Please find below details of how our Governing body is structured, including the names, categories, responsibilities and terms of appointment for each Governor.
We have also provided a Register of Governor Interests and an Annual Statement of Issues for your information.
Mistley Norman Church of England Primary School is part of the Diocese of Chelmsford Vine Schools Trust. The trust contains a mixture of both Voluntary Aided and Voluntary Controlled Schools, each of which is run by their own Local Governing Body with powers delegated to them by the Multi Academy Trust boards through what is termed 'Earned Autonomy'. In other words the more successful the school the more autonomy the governing body has.
The Local Governing Body works with the Head Teacher, School Leaders and the MAT board to ensure pupils get the best education the school can provide.
