Primary Cluster Committee
Primary cluster committee representatives are volunteers who play an important part in setting the direction of the school, guiding us in our relentless drive to raise standards. Every cluster school committee representative is passionate about improving the lives of our children. Our committee representatives offer us an excellent balance between acting as critical friends and ensuring accountability in our decision making process. Our committee representatives meet formally throughout the year, in addition to making school visits on a termly basis and taking on extra responsibilities as required through key link roles. Staff, parent and co-opted representatives serve on primary cluster school committee.
Mrs Karen Hogg is the Chair of the Cluster School Committee and can be contacted by emailing lwilson@ryedalelearningtrust.co.uk (governance manager) or by writing to Mrs Hogg c/o Helmsley Community Primary School, Carlton Lane, York YO62 5HB.
