Resources Committee

Meetings are held once every half term to discuss the staffing of the school and any matters relating to the school premises, grounds, security and health and safety.

Finance: Our tasks each year include the recommendation of the new budget to the Governing Board for approval, approving expenditure over to £10,000 and monitoring the school’s income and expenditure on a termly basis. We review and approve the use of any carried forward surplus balances and ensure compliance with the City Council’s financial regulations including the annual submission of the School’s Financial Value statement. We also oversee the Head Teachers annual performance review.

Staffing: We review the staffing structure yearly and whenever a vacancy occurs, in relation to the school’s development; review salaries and any discipline or grievance complaints.

Resources: We provide support and guidance to the Head Teacher on all matters relating to the school premises. Any costs and arrangements for any work required, provided they are within the budget allocation.  We also ensure that the Governing Board's responsibilities under the appropriate Health and Safety legislation are discharged. All minutes from these meetings are given to the Full Governing Board for their final approval. Delegation is given to the committee for decisions regarding minor issues. Any major issue is taken to the Full Governing Board
