Governance

On 1^st April 2018 Carshalton High School for Girls joined the Girls’ Learning Trust (GLT) and the systems of CHSG governance changed significantly. The 3 schools (CHSG, Nonsuch and Wallington) in the GLT are governed by a Trust Board, comprised of 8 trustees and a Chief Executive Officer. This board is responsible for;

• The overall vision of the Trust;

• The finances of the schools in the Trust;

• The human resources within the 3 schools;

• The performance of the schools in the Trust;

• Admissions (Delegated to each LGB);

• Accountable for major building projects.

Each school has a Local Governing Body (LGB) which reports to the Trust at Trust Board meetings. The LGB is responsible for:

• Admissions;

• The school’s curriculum;

• Attendance;

• Special Educational Needs and Pupil Premium students;

• Safeguarding in line with Trust policy;

• Health and safety in line with Trust policy;

The Carshalton LGB meets four times a year, once in the autumn and spring terms, twice in the summer term. 

The Chair of the LGB is Mrs Fiona Johnston. The Chair is appointed by the Trust Board annually. A full list of the present governors is set out in the attachment below, together with their responsibilities.
