Board of Governors

Welcome to our Governors’ section.

The Board of Governors is made up of volunteers who have a strong desire to see St Mary’s PS Dunsford continue to go from strength to strength.

The Board of Governors has an important strategic role to play in the management of our school with a view to providing the best possible education and educational opportunities for all of our children.

This involves;

  • Setting the strategic direction of the school
  • Taking corporate decisions in relation to the statutory functions of the Board of Governors
