OUR GOVERNORS

At Pendle Community High School and College we are very lucky to have a strong and active Board of Governors. Our Governors act as our critical friends supporting the work of the school whilst questioning impact of our actions. Our Governors regularly meet with key teaching members of staff to discuss policy and the progress the pupils are making and take the opportunities to ‘walk’ the school observing daily life.
