Local Governing Body

We have a highly committed team of governors which includes parents, teachers and representatives from the local community. Together we work in partnership with governors from Ash Grove Primary Academy.  This collaboration brings together a diverse group of individuals dedicated to a common vision. Our core values of support, collaboration, excellence, and innovation will guide us as we work together to provide an exceptional learning environment for every pupil.

We believe that by combining our strengths and sharing best practices, we can achieve great things and ensure a bright future for our school communities.

Whilst the School’s Senior Leadership Team are responsible for the day to day running of the school, the Local Governing Board is involved in the strategic direction of the school. The Local Governing Board plays an important role in ensuring that the school is accountable for its actions and all our Governors are appointed by the Trust. The Governors meet each term for a formal meeting and also spend half days in school together in order to monitor developments and keep up to date with the progress made towards school priorities.
