Our Governing Board

List of Current Federation Governors

Please note: With the exception of Sukhy Mahal, as identified in the grid below, no other governor serves on a governing body of any other educational establishment. All governors have full voting rights.

As this is a new, federated governing board, there are no attendance figures for the previous academic year. Governors who left the Gayton Governing Board in the last 12 months are also included at the bottom of the page.
