Academy Council

The school has an Academy Council which provides local governance. It is made up of volunteers from the local community, parents, headteacher and colleagues from the trust. Find out more about the Academy Council members.

The Academy Council is focused upon the individual school context, monitoring standards and achievement, and supporting and challenging school leaders to provide the best possible education for the students.  

Each Academy Councillor takes on the role of Champion for a particular area, in which they hold the Academy leadership to account by providing challenge and support within an agreed framework.  

The Academy Council meets as a full body six times in the year. There are no committees. 

The Academy Council role includes: 

• Setting strategic priorities and plans 
• Monitoring standards and achievement within the school 
• Ensuring Trust policies are implemented 
• Engaging with all stakeholders to improve outcomes 
• Supporting and positively challenging school leaders.
