**As stated in the DfE’s Governance Handbook, the responsibilities of the governing body are:**

- **Ensuring clarity of vision, ethos and strategic direction;**
- **Holding executive leaders to account for the educational performance of the organisation and its pupils, and the effective and efficient performance management of staff; and**
- **Overseeing the financial performance of the organisation and making sure its money is well spent**

- Register of Interests

Below is a list of all governors declared interests, whether they be a business interest, as a governor at another educational establishment or a material interest arising from relationships between governors or between governors and school staff (including spouses, partners and close relatives).

Governors should declare any links they have with firms from which the school may buy goods or services or other schools/establishment.  It is important that anyone involved in spending public money demonstrates that they do not personally benefit from decisions that they make.
