Governors

The Governors of Whitehall Primary are made up from parents, members of the local community, the Local Authority and from the school teaching staff. We are continually striving to be fully involved in the monitoring and evaluation of the school, providing a blend of challenge, encouragement and support to ensure that the children have the best education and opportunities available to them at Whitehall. We believe that we can provide a great foundation for them to continue to succeed throughout their lives.
