Welcome to our Governors’ section. 

Please find below details of how our Governing body is structured, including the names, categories, responsibilities and terms of appointment for each Governor.

Key roles of the Local Governing Body
 

The Academy Trust Governance Guide states the key roles of the Local Governing Body are to oversee:

• strategic leadership – defining the vision, fostering the trust’s culture and setting the strategy
• accountability and assurance – robust and effective oversight of trust operations and performance
• engagement – strategic oversight of relationships with stakeholders, ensuring decision-making is supported by meaningful engagement

Responsibilities are delegated to academy committees (also known as local governing bodies) to help the trust board fulfil this purpose and to strengthen MAT governance.
