I am pleased to announce that Mr Chowdhry has been successfully voted in by the parents, as the next parent governor.

Mr Chowdhry

As a resident of Pentwyn with a child in Glyncoed, I have seen Glyncoed grow & develop in to a flourishing diverse hub for pupils and community. As a business owner & sports organiser for children with 20 years of experience I can help the school reach its full potential.

An Overview of the Governing Body

Chair of Governors - Mr Mark Perrins (Community Governor)

Vice Chair of Governors - Mrs Rebecca Dumont (Parent Governor)

The ‘Education Act 2002’ states that ‘the governing body shall conduct the school with a view to promoting high standards of educational achievement at the school’.

We establish the strategic framework by:

• setting aims and objectives for the school;
• adopting policies for achieving those aims and objectives;
• setting targets for achieving those aims and objectives;
• reviewing progress towards achieving the aims and objectives.

Our Governing Body is made up of thirteen members. 

As part of our meetings, we regularly hear from staff and pupils e.g. Senedd Glyncoed, who present to governors regarding matters such as progress on school priorities and the work of pupil action groups.

We have three core committees: Finance & Staffing; Curriculum & Policies (incorporating Standards); Premises and Health & Safety.  Membership of these committees is agreed annually by governors at the first meeting of every academic year.
