CHAIR OF GOVERNORS<br />
Page-21<br />
A message from the Chair of Governors, Mr E Samuels<br />
On behalf of the Governing Body, I wanted to congratulate the students and staff at school<br />
on such a positive first half term. The academic, debating and sporting awards reflect all of<br />
the hard work which is currently being shown at The John Fisher School. I was delighted to<br />
find out the Sutton Review team’s reflections on the standard of governance at the school<br />
when they visited at the beginning of October. The team commented in their report that<br />
“Governors have a strong understanding of their role within the school and the moral purpose<br />
of the school as and within the Catholic community.”<br />
We should feel very proud that we have such a successful Catholic school in our local catholic<br />
community and truly appreciate how our students benefit from the thoughtfulness that<br />
our Catholic teaching and distinctiveness encourages. Our success does not make us complacent<br />
however and we want to continue to work on being the best that we can be. I would<br />
stress to parents/carers the importance of being part of our John Fisher School Association<br />
and would encourage you to attend the events which will hopefully take place this year. Let’s<br />
hope we can find some volunteers to take up the leadership roles in this successful Parent<br />
Teacher Association as we move the school further forward together.<br />
Yours sincerely,<br />
Mr Samuels<br />
