Junior Governors

Here at The Orchards we encourage the involvement of the children as much as possible in the life and work of the school.  The Junior Governor body was set up and they are a group of pupils who have been nominated by their class peers.  There are 2 junior governors representing each class and they meet regularly with the Headteacher to discuss any school issues and to put forward ideas and suggestions for future consideration.
