Governance

Welcome from the Governing Body

We are very proud indeed to be governors at Uckfield College, a community where students are at the heart of everything we do and dedicated staff go the extra mile to ensure that students achieve the best possible outcomes.

Governors don’t get involved in the day to day running of the college, but we work closely with the strategic leadership team to carry out three core functions:

(i)   Setting a vision and strategy for the college

(ii)  Overseeing the college’s financial performance, ensuring that money is well spent

(iii)  Holding the strategic leadership team to account to ensure that every student gets the best possible education

The full governing body meets three times a year. We have three sub-committees which look at Quality of Education; Student Progress and Finance & Resources, and each of us also have a link role to oversee a particular aspect of school life. 

The governing body is committed to see that Uckfield College contributes to Uckfield life and that it serves the needs of students, parents and the local community.  The board strongly identifies with the College's values (Integrity, Curiosity, Resilience, Kindness, Aspiration and Self-Regulation) and sees these as essential attributes for our next generation of young people.
