Kent Christian School was founded by a group of parents to provide supplementary tutoring to all peoples of all abilities. The school provides teaching for Mathematics, English, Science and other subjects to pupils aged 5-19. The school compliments the pupils’ day school by ensuring that the subjects are delivered in line with the National Curriculum.
Governors
Kent Christian School Governing body acts as a corporate body, by acting with integrity, objectivity and honesty and in the best interests of the school. We are open about, and prepared to explain, our decisions and actions.
Our governing body carry out their functions with the aim of taking a largely strategic role in the running of the school. This includes setting up a strategic framework for the school, setting its aims and objectives, setting policies and targets for achieving the objectives, reviewing progress and reviewing the strategic framework in the light of progress.
The governing body is responsible for establishing a written performance management policy to govern implementation of school teacher appraisal, after making sure that all teachers at the school are consulted. The governing body can ask the head to consult teachers but must ensure that consultation takes place. The governing body reviews the policy, again having ensured that all teachers are consulted every school year.
The head drafts the policy, if the governing body so directs, and, with the governing body, must implement the policy. The governing body must make a copy of the policy available at the school to any of the school’s teachers, anyone inspecting the school’s appraisal system or to the external adviser.
