East Sussex,

On behalf of the Governing Body, we are delighted to welcome you to Hove Park School – a true community school where ‘together we achieve’. The Governors at Hove Park are a group of committed and passionate volunteers that support and challenge the school to ensure all students can achieve the best possible educational outcomes. Our Governing Body encompasses a variety of skills, backgrounds and experiences, together with a diversity of view, in order to carry out our key responsibilities. Our role is to be the strategic leaders of the school and we have a vital role to play in making sure every child gets the best possible education within a safe, stimulating and highly positive environment. To ensure effective governance we focus on three core strategic functions: Ensuring clarity of vision, ethos and strategic direction. Holding the Headteacher to account for the educational performance of the school and it’s students , and the effective and efficient performance management of the staff. Overseeing the financial performance of the school and making sure its money is well spent. You can read more about how governors work to lead schools effectively on the National Governance Association’s website. At Hove Park, we recognise the key role that the whole community, particularly parents and carers, play in developing a successful school where students learn and develop to their full potential. We work collaboratively with the local authority, as well as our partner secondary and primary schools and their governors across Brighton & Hove.

South Downs Forest School

We are extremely lucky to have access to a beautiful woodland with two meadows, nestled on a gentle slope on the stunning South Downs. We also have a fantastic view across to Lewes and Firle. Having the chance to shine, to experience personal satisfaction, enjoyment and achievement is good for anyone. It increases motivation and general happiness in life. All children and young people deserve to experience this! Children love learning outside and at South Downs Forest School we offer a wide range of bespoke Forest School Programmes and Outdoor Learning events to support children and young people from disadvantaged and vulnerable backgrounds with their learning, development and wellbeing. Overwhelming evidence shows that children are often happier learning outside; rich, exciting and stimulating, woodlands provide opportunities to learn a wide range of skills as well as develop emotional intelligence, resilience and well being. We are passionate about getting children and young people back into contact with nature and support them in discovering this rich and stimulating learning environment. If you have a group of children that would like to come and experience a Forest School programme or Outdoor Learning session, we can offer bespoke programmes or events to suit your needs. Sessions are led by an enthusiastic teacher with experience in many fields of education, Forest School, Outdoor Learning, Special Educational Needs and Well Being. We believe that the Forest School experience, with its strong element of self-directed learning over an extended period, encourages self confidence, self esteem, problem solving and team building. Enriched Outdoor Learning translates to healthier, happier children with improved performance, in terms of both learning, behaviour and mental health.
