Local Governing Board
As a school that is part of the Emmaus Catholic trust, our Governors form a local governing board (LGB) within the multi-academy trust.
The LGB is a subcommittee of the Trust.
The existence of the LGB supports the Trust's ethos and the aligned autonomy of the school.
The Governors are made up of various groups including:
-
Foundation Governors (representing the Bishop)
-
Parent Governors
-
Staff Governors
-
Associate Governors
Foundation Governors are appointed by the Bishop
Parent and Staff Governors are Elected . Associate Governors are invited to join the LGB for their expertise.
Terms of office as per the Trust Scheme of Delegation. Responsibilities include:
-
Appointing and dismissing staff
-
Setting the Admission Policies
-
Establishing and monitoring the curriculum
-
Health and Safety
-
Safeguarding
And many other areas determined by the Trust. These can be found on the Emmaus website under the section Policies/Scheme of Delegation.
Governors hold six LGB meetings per year.
