Long Ditton Infant and Nursery School Governing Body is a body comprising of representatives from the local area, the Headteacher, staff governors, parents, local authority and foundation governors. 

The three main aims of the governing body are:

• Ensuring clarity of vision, ethos and strategic direction for the school
• Holding the Headteacher and leadership team to account for the educational performance of the school and its pupils.
• Overseeing the financial performance of the school and making sure its money is well spent.

The Governors meet at least termly as a whole governing body and more frequently in smaller sub-committees. All of our meetings are closed.

The sub-committees are delegated specific authority, and in return must report their actions and decisions to the full body.  The sub-committees are:

• Children and Learning, and
• People and Resources

The day to day running of the school is the responsibility of the Headteacher and staff. The governing body has a range of duties and powers and a general responsibility for the conduct of the school with a view to promoting high standards of educational achievement.
