Minutes:

Members considered a report of the Headmaster regarding policies.

 

An apostrophe would be added to correct the “Teachers’”, rather than “Teachers”, Professional Development Policy.

 

The School encouraged Governors to volunteer to review the SCR and offered to provide training, so Governors knew what they were looking for when undertaking the check. There were no Covid-19 restrictions presently in place that prevented Governors (in limited numbers) from visiting the School for this purpose.

 

The Equality, Diversity & Inclusion Policy had been reviewed in light of good work of an internal Diversity & Inclusion Committee. The Policy would be published on the website to ensure there was transparency around this subject.

 

RESOLVED, that Governors approve the Teachers’ Professional Development Policy, Single Central Register Policy; and Equality, Diversity and Inclusion Policy.
