Governors

School Governors are a team of volunteers who together with the Headteacher set the strategic direction of the school. Our local governing body (LGB) at Langley Park Primary School is made up of a number of people from diverse backgrounds, with a breadth of professional skills and experience.

The Governors at LPPS provide support and challenge our Headteacher, Mrs S Kluzek. We work together to ensure that we offer the best possible education for every child.
