Education Standards Committee (ESC)

Main functions are to:

  1. To provide a strategic overview that ensures the pupils learn most effectively and achieve the highest standards
  2. Act as a “critical friend” of the school by providing the Principal and staff with support, advice, and information by monitoring and evaluating the school’s effectiveness.
  3. To ensure accountability. We are accountable to parents, pupils, the community, the Diocese and Ofsted

It is also responsible for many important decisions in the running of the school. These include:

  1. Involvement in the appointment of teaching staff as appropriate.
  2. Agreeing the aims of the school curriculum and ensuring the national curriculum is implemented
  3. Dealing with official complaints and exclusions
