McMillan Nursery School Governing Body 

The school has a Governing Body made up of ten stakeholders including parents, staff, community and Local Authority representatives.  The Governing Body has a legal responsibility for the Nursery School.  The Governors work with the Headteacher to set the vision and strategic aims and to monitor and evaluate performance. The Governors are actively involved in the  school and regularly attend to observe/ support visits and share in our celebrations such as Concerts, Eid, Christmas etc.  They are keen to hear your views and opinions of the school.  Please feel free to approach them either in person when they are in school or by email to head@mcmillan.lancs.sch.uk

All Governors have annual safeguarding training and understand their role they have in Safeguarding at McMillan Nursery School. All Governors have read and understood KCSIE 2022. 

The Parent Governors are parents of the children attending the school at the time of appointment.  They are chosen by the majority of votes made by parents.  All parents of children in School are eligible as parent Governors.  There are three Governors meetings annually, one each School term, which are held in School.  There are also additional committee meetings each term.

Staff Governors are elected by staff, Local Authority representatives are elected by Lancashire County Council and Co-opted Governors are elected by the Governing Body based on their skills and attributes relevant to the School.

If you are interested about finding out more about the Governing Body, please speak to the Headteacher or the Chair of Governors
