[TOUR DATES](https://www.glenfieldschool.co.uk/children-starting-school-in-september-2027) # Governors ## Governors The Governors of our school are a dedicated, committed and enthusiastic group of people that seek to ensure that we are providing the best standards of care, teaching and learning opportunities for all the children at Glenfield Infants. The Governors of Glenfield Infant School have a strong skill set and work pro-actively and co-operatively with the Headteacher and staff to improve outcomes for all children across the school. A strategic approach is taken for all new appointments to ensure that a balance of key skills within the Governing Body is maintained. ### The Role of the Governor Governors have a strategic overview of the school that encompasses finance, the curriculum, health and safety and safeguarding. Governors perform a crucial role in ensuring public money is being spent to advantage all children and that the school adheres to all local and national requirements. Governors review school data and ask questions about outcomes and value for money. They ensure that the school provides a broad and balanced curriculum and that there are enrichment opportunities for all pupils. They work with senior leaders to monitor standards across the curriculum. **[Academy Trust Governance Guide - Guidance - GOV.UK](https://www.gov.uk/guidance/-governance-in-academy-trusts)** The Governors welcome your comments and value your support. If you would like to speak to a Governor, please feel free to approach us or make a request through the school. --- **Membership of the school governing body is as follows:** - Chair of Governors: Belinda Cone (co-opted) - Headteacher Governor: Clare Clifford - Staff Governors: Marie Bishop - Parent Governor: Alex Tarling (Vice Chair) - Co-opted Governors: David Whineray, Louise Piggin & Pravar Kulshreshtha - Clerk to the Governors: Gemma Duer **Contact:** Belinda Cone c/o Clerk to the Governors Glenfield Infant School, Rossington Way, Southampton SO18 4RN Governor Meeting Attendance 2024-2025 86 KB [Open for printing](https://files.schudio.com/glenfield-infant-school/files/documents/Meeting_attendance_2024-25.pdf) Governor Meeting Attendance 2022-2023 32 KB [Open for printing](https://files.schudio.com/glenfield-infant-school/files/documents/Governor-Meeting-Attendance-2022-2023.317050342.pdf) Governor Meeting Attendance 2021-2022 405 KB [Open for printing](https://files.schudio.com/glenfield-infant-school/files/documents/gov-attendance-21-22.278855281.pdf) Governor Meeting Attendance 2020-2021 220 KB [Open for printing](https://files.schudio.com/glenfield-infant-school/files/documents/gov-attendance-20-21.244977559.pdf) Governor Meeting Attendance 2019-2020 219 KB [Open for printing](https://files.schudio.com/glenfield-infant-school/files/documents/gov-attendance-19-20.214244736.pdf) Governor Meeting Attendance 2018-2019 212 KB [Open for printing](https://files.schudio.com/glenfield-infant-school/files/documents/gov-attendance-1819-final.214238121.pdf) LGC Terms of Reference 289 KB [Open for printing](https://files.schudio.com/glenfield-infant-school/files/documents/LGC_Terms_of_Reference_Sept_25-26.pdf) Business Interest Declarations 91 KB [Open for printing](https://files.schudio.com/glenfield-infant-school/files/documents/Business_Interest_Declarations_2025-26.pdf) ### Our School - [Welcome to Our School](https://www.glenfieldschool.co.uk/welcome-to-our-school) - [Vision & Values](https://www.glenfieldschool.co.uk/vision-values) - [Staff](https://www.glenfieldschool.co.uk/staff) - [Governors](https://www.glenfieldschool.co.uk/governors) - [Parent Committee (FOG)](https://www.glenfieldschool.co.uk/parent-committee-fog) - [Job Vacancies](https://www.glenfieldschool.co.uk/job-vacancies) - [Details of School Opening Times](https://www.glenfieldschool.co.uk/details-of-school-opening-times) - [​​​​​​​​Hamwic Education Trust (HET)](https://www.glenfieldschool.co.uk/hamwic-education-trust-het) - [Volunteering at Glenfield](https://www.glenfieldschool.co.uk/volunteering-at-glenfield) ![Glenfield Infant School](https://files.schudio.com/glenfield-infant-school/images/logo/logo-footer(1).png) ### Glenfield Infant School Rossington Way Southampton SO18 4RN 023 8022 7966 ### Useful Links - [Vision & Values](https://www.glenfieldschool.co.uk/vision-values) - [Attendance](https://www.glenfieldschool.co.uk/attendance) - [Governors](https://www.glenfieldschool.co.uk/governors) - [Volunteering](https://www.glenfieldschool.co.uk/volunteering-at-glenfield) - [Policies](https://www.glenfieldschool.co.uk/policies) ### Social Media - [Facebook](https://www.facebook.com/GlenfieldInfantSchool) ### Translation [![Hamwic Education Trust ](https://files.schudio.com/glenfield-infant-school/images/logo/Copy_of_White_Outline_Icons_(500_x_500_px)_(200_x_200_px)_(3).png)](https://hamwic-education-trust.schudio.com) © Copyright 2025–2026 Glenfield Infant School School & Trust Websites by [ ![Schudio logo](https://www.glenfieldschool.co.uk/img/logo/light.png) ](https://www.schudio.com/)
