Our Governance Structure

We believe that the best people to govern our schools are their own governing bodies - people who are local to them, know them well, care about the students and have the appropriate professional skills.The board of trustees oversees several trust sub-committees (which are detailed at the bottom of this page) to conduct its work in depth, inviting additional professionals to these committees to assist. Our Members oversee the Trustees.
