The governors at Horsell Church of England Junior School ensure that the school provides the best possible education for each and every pupil within a Christian environment.  We place great emphasis on personal academic, creative and physical achievement and we encourage the development of lively and enquiring minds within a friendly and stimulating environment.  All children are valued as individuals, as we live out our belief that we are all 'created in the image of God', and self esteem is fostered.

In order to do this, we have a clear strategic direction linked to our promotion of the school's ethos and values. We are robust in our challenge to the Head and Senior Leadership Team, holding them to account to deliver the high standards of education and well-being of all the children.  We ensure that we also have a high standard of governance through our evaluation and continual improvement of our collective responsibility. To do this, we make sure we are always up-to-date with current thinking and legal requirements, through courses run by the Diocese, together with governing board training sessions.

All governors attend local governing board meetings.

We are committed to the development of effective partnerships with other schools and we work closely with both Horsell Village Infant School and Woking High School to ensure a smooth transition between Key Stages.

We place our school at the heart of the community and participate in many local events.  The children thoroughly enjoy our link with St Mary's Church and the enrichment that brings to their lives.
