Personnel, Finance and Premises Committee
The Personnel, Finance and Premises Committee is accountable for overseeing both the school budget and ensuring that we have effective policies and procedures for managing teachers and staff. We are also responsible for ensuring Highworth is a safe place to be, and that we are adhering to the highest possible levels of Health and Safety. Highworth, as a local authority maintained school, receives a delegated budget from Bucks County Council, the majority as with most schools is used to employ our most valuable resource, the school's teachers and staff. The Personnel, Finance and Premises committee approves the budget each year and regularly scrutinises actual and planned spend to ensure the school is securing value for money and acting with financial probity.
