At St Michael's,  the governors are very well attended and everyone participates in discussions in order plan strategically, challenging the effectiveness of plans and policies and offer support as a 'critical friend' to the Headteacher and senior leaders. Where possible Governors attend school events and support the school by assisting on projects when asked.
