2018-19 – Governing Body of Olney Middle School
Welcome to the Governor section of the school website. Our Governors are a key part of the strategic leadership of the school and play a vital role in helping to ensure our children get the best from their time in Olney Middle School.
The Governing Body of Olney Middle School is a vibrant group of volunteers, who help set and dedicate themselves to the vision, values and strategic direction of the school. They share responsibilities for monitoring and evaluating the performance of the school in delivering an excellent, broad and balanced education for all its children. The Governing Body meets regularly throughout the year, including through its 2 sub-committees focused on Educational Excellence (EEC) and Finance & Future Growth (FFG).
The remit and responsibilities of the Governing Body are outlined in the Scheme of Delegation of Inspiring Futures through Learning, our Multi-Academy Trust and can be found at www.iftl.co.uk
If you wish to make contact with Jane Richardson, Chair of Governors please do so by sending a letter in a sealed envelope marked for her attention via the school office, or via email on: mrsrichardson@olneymiddle.milton-keynes.sch.uk
