School Governors
I am delighted to welcome you to the Leconfield Primary school website. I hope that through the pages and different features of the website you will be able to get a real understanding of what a special place Leconfield Primary School is.
As Governors, we are very proud to be part of the local community and are fully committed to working with Mrs Tracey and her staff, the children and parents/carers to ensure that we keep encouraging the pupils to be the best they can and also promoting the spiritual, cultural, mental and physical development of pupils, preparing them for the opportunities, responsibilities and experiences of adult life.
Part of our role as a Governing body is to set the vision and strategic direction of the school and to achieve this we have worked with the school leadership team to identify where the school needs to improve to ensure your child receives the best possible education they can in a safe, secure and nurturing environment.
Our Governing body consists of a diverse group of people from different walks of life, including parents: the different skill set each governor brings allows us to effectively support and challenge the leadership team as a ‘critical friend’. All with the aim of improving all aspects of the school, including raising attainment and achievement and ensuring your child’s needs are carefully met.
I am extremely proud to be part of the Leconfield Primary School team and I know my fellow governors all feel the same way.
Thank you for reading this welcome and do check out our website for much more detailed information about all aspects of our school.

‘The school has gone above and beyond with my daughter who has SEN. Nothing is too much trouble. The EHCP is followed and tailored to her needs.’
