Governing Board

At King Edward VI King’s Norton School for Boys our Governing Board has a broad balance of diversity, skills, knowledge and experience. This means we are able to make a valuable contribution to all of our students’ education, opportunities and futures, by providing strategic leadership and accountability in the school, which is underpinned by our three core functions:

  • overseeing the financial performance of the school and ensuring its money is well spent
  • holding the headteacher to account for the educational performance of the school and its students
  • ensuring clarity of vision, ethos and strategic direction.
