Bishop Douglass Catholic School Governing Body
The Governors have a wide range of responsibilities for the School including its overall values, the School Improvement Plan, the budget and staff appointments. The Archbishop of Westminster appoints foundation governors and all others are elected. The clerk is appointed by the Governors.
