Local Governing Bodies

We value the scrutiny of local governance and believe that effective governance is best delivered when school leaders are held to account and are challenged on pupil outcomes and the quality of educational provision.  Our Trust relies on the valuable input of a considerable number of experienced and committed local governors.  The Local Governing Bodies provide focussed and challenging governance for each school at a local level on behalf of the Trust Board.  For an overview of how governance works within our Trust, please visit our Governance page.

For Local Governing Bodies to carry out their role effectively, governors must be:

  • prepared and equipped to take their responsibilities seriously;
  • accountable to the Trust Board;
  • willing and able to monitor and review their own performance.

We would expect that the core business of each Local Governing Body to:

1) Encourage, challenge and hold to account school leaders to constantly raise standards within the school, through the effective reviewing and monitoring of:

  • the School Strategic Plan;
  • Safeguarding;
  • Quality of education;
  • Leadership and management;
  • Behaviour and attitudes;
  • Personal development;
  • Staffing; and,
  • Premises and Health and Safety.

2) Ensure that Trust policies are implemented and relevant school-level policies and procedures are reviewed.

3) Have financial awareness and review the impact of Sports Funding and Pupil Premium expenditure.
