Academy Council & BKCAT Governance
Governor Recruitment
We warmly welcome expressions of interest from individuals who feel called to serve our school community as Foundation, Parent, or Staff Governors on our Academy Council.
For those who may be new to the world of school governance, we understand that taking this step can feel daunting. However, governance is first and foremost a positive vocation of service. Academy Governors play a vital role in supporting the mission of Catholic education, helping schools to flourish in faith, learning, and community, and ensuring that every child is enabled to grow in love, friendship and joy.
The Chair of the Academy Council is Mrs Suzanne Sweeting. If you would like to contact Mrs Sweeting, please do so via email at admin@sm.bkcat.uk or by post to St Mary’s Catholic Primary School, Baffam Lane, Selby, North Yorkshire, YO8 9AX.
