At the conclusion of the meetings listed above, it was resolved by Governors that, under regulation 15 of the School Governance Regs 2013, the governing body is satisfied that all the details of financial (excluding pupil premium and sports funding), personnel matters and the headteacher’s report should remain confidential (by reason of their nature).
Copies of the minutes for the above meetings are available on request.
