Governadores
Nosso Corpo Governante Local
Os governadores visitam a escola regularmente para conhecer e conversar com as crianças e funcionários. Temos um Dia do Governador na escola a cada semestre, quando eles visitam as aulas, realizam discussões com os alunos, realizam o Escrutínio do Trabalho e se reúnem com os pais e professores. Eles também participam de eventos e assembleias na escola. Isso permite que eles vejam como as políticas e planos da escola estão sendo implementados, como os recursos são usados e permite que eles coletem informações e conhecimento da escola.
Nossos governadores são um grupo diversificado de indivíduos que representam os pais, funcionários da escola e a comunidade local, com uma ampla gama de habilidades e experiências. Todos eles compartilham um objetivo comum de ajudar a escola a se desenvolver e melhorar e, ao fazê-lo, fornecer a suas crianças a melhor educação possível.
Todos os governadores são voluntários.
O Corpo Governante Local se reúne pelo menos uma vez por mandato. Os governadores participam de treinamentos fornecidos externamente e também participam de treinamentos LGB 'internos' a cada mandato. Nossa presidente em exercício, Rachel Proctor, também se reúne com os presidentes das outras escolas da Thrive periodicamente.
Responsabilidades do Governador
A escola produz uma Jornada de Desenvolvimento Escolar (SDJ) que detalha as principais prioridades para melhoria nos próximos três anos e como elas serão alcançadas. Os Governadores trabalham em conjunto com o pessoal para garantir que essas prioridades-chave sejam alcançadas. Os governadores trabalham em estreita colaboração com a equipe nas 'Três Grandes Ideias', que são três peças-chave do trabalho de melhoria que foram identificadas no SDJ.

I have been a part of Stepney for around 16 years. Firstly, as parent whose three children attended the school then as a volunteer, followed by parent governor then finally Chair of Governors.
I have always had a special interest in SEN with having 2 children with disabilities. This has driven me to always try to make every child achieve their true potential through the continued hard work of the School and the Governing Body.

I joined St Stephen’s Shopping Centre in 2007 following a career with Nottingham University and Hull City Council and have been actively involved with Stepney Primary School for the past six years.
I initially started as a reading assistant through my involvement with Business in the Community which was also supported by St Stephen’s. In 2015 I became a co-opted governor and am very proud to be associated with this amazing school. It is a privilege to work with the teaching staff, pupils and other governors who are all so enthusiastic in providing the best education whilst making the pupil’s wellbeing the number one priority.
My interest in literacy and reading skills continues and I also like to support the children with after-school activities, school trips and other valuable initiatives such as the learning activities provided by the Hull & East Yorkshire Children’s University which I am also a trustee/volunteer.
Through my involvement in these various youth education and training initiatives, I gain satisfaction in helping to encourage our young people, inspiring them to believe in themselves and to create a positive future for all.

I have been working in a Social Sector for 15 Years, since I had completed my Masters in Social Sciences. Besides my other jobs, I have alway been keen on the idea of social change by eliminating any kind of gender based discrimination and identifying the stereotypes which could badly affect our community. I strongly believe in the Children’s Right advocated through UNCRC (UN Convention on the Rights of the Child). As a Governor, I am interested to strengthen a Parent-Teacher partnership to achieve the desired outcomes which will lead our school to the outstanding level of education and children can develop themselves as high achievers within the community.
