Welcome from the Chair
I am delighted to welcome you to the website of the Eden Boys’ School, Preston. I am honoured to serve as the first Chair of the School’s Local Accountability Board and I am grateful to my fellow Governors, who will voluntarily devote so much time and effort to make our school the very best it can be. As a Local Accountability Board, we are determined that every student at Eden Boys’ goes on to achieve outstanding outcomes in all areas of their lives.
As Governors, we will provide support for the Principal and her Leadership Team and hold them to account for the quality of our education provision and the outcomes of our students. We will act as “critical friends” in interests of our pupils. We will make sure that everything the schools does is within the legal frameworks laid down for us by Parliament and complies with charity and company law as well our funding agreement with Government.
Working with our staff, students, parents and the local community, we want to build a school that offers educational excellence, underpinned by an inclusive faith ethos. This will not only be through our academic curriculum but also through our Leadership specialism and our exciting programme of enrichment activities. Our key aim is to ensure that Eden Boys’ educates the whole student, equipping them to play a constructive part in the local community and beyond.
