Meadow View JMI School Governance 2023-2024
We have an Executive Governor Board, who are drawn from both within the federation schools and also externally to provide the challenge, strategic view and experience that we need to continue to succeed.
The Governing Board has overall responsibility and accountability for all of our schools and leads on delivering the Lighthouse Federation vision.
It is the responsibility of the board to undertake the due diligence of any school wishing to join the federation and to support leaders at all levels in driving forward with improvement.
In line with the Department for Education's Federation Guidance, The Lighthouse Federation Governing Board is made up of 24 members and are composed of:
- 1 Chief Operating Officer
- 7 Headteachers (Including Executive Headteachers)
- 1 Local Authority Governor
- 2 Parent Governors
- 1 Staff Governor
- 13 Co-opted Governors
- 9 places are allocated to Chairs of School Committees
- 3 places are allocated based on the skill requirements of the Executive Board.

Local School Committee Members (Associate to the Governing Body)
The Local School Committee is comprised of representatives from our the Lighthouse Federation Governors, Local Authority, Local Community, Councillors and Parents.
As a critical friend, the School Committee offers support, constructive advice, a sounding board for ideas, a second opinion and help and guidance where needed. Committee members in collaboration with the Lighthouse Federation Governors are responsible for establishing the aims and policies of the school, implementing the school budget and ensuring the curriculum is taught effectively.
We set targets for the school and ensure implementation when visiting school regularly to act as a link between parents, pupils and school.
Meadow View JMI School is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of our children. We expect all Committee members, Governors, staff and volunteers to share in this commitment and as such we insist all members have a satisfactory Enhanced DBS.
All Meadow View Governors and Committee members welcome feedback and suggestions from parents, carers and the local community. Any correspondence received will be promptly dealt with at the next scheduled local school committee meeting and the outcome will be reported back appropriately.
