Championing a Brighter Future for all

Governing Board

The Governing Board have a very important role at Stratford Manor. The board offers challenge and support to the school so that Stratford Manor continues to develop and do the best for the school community underpinned by our school motto ‘Championing a Brighter Future for All. The governors visit the school regularly where they meet with senior and middle leaders and talk to staff and children. Some visits are general so that they are able to see the school in action whilst other visits may be more specific focussed on a specific question which will have been derived from a previous Governing Board meeting.

Stratford Manor’s Governing Board

The Governing Board at Stratford Manor is made up of people from various parts of the community served by the school – parents, staff and local members of the community. Governors are responsible for:

  • ensuring legal, financial, safeguarding and other requirements are met
  • attending meetings of the full Governing Body and – preparing by reading the various papers
  • participating in sub-committee that members are part of
  • actively being interested in and supporting the school in various ways; both as a critical friend of the school and as a champion for it.
  • being accountable for those responsibilities held by the Governing Board

In addition to the main board, named Governors may also be part of sub-committees. Currently, there is one sub-committee for Finance.

Should you be interested in knowing more about our role and perhaps becoming a governor yourself, or you have issues you wish to raise with us, please contact our Chair of Governors through the school office staff who will pass on your details to him.

Meet our Chair of Governors, Jefferson Courtney

I am the proud Chair of the Governing Board and has been a co-opted governor at Stratford Manor Primary School since 2016. I am also a member of the finance committee and I am the link governor for inclusion. I have lived in East London for nearly twenty years and work in policy and public affairs for the health charity the Haemophilia Society and bring skills in business management and communications to the school’s Governing Board. For me, being a governor is not just about being responsible that the school is legally and financially sound but it is about respecting and fostering the Stratford Manor community and being determined in supporting the school’s drive for excellence for the staff and pupils.
