The Local School Committees carry the trust vision, policies and priorities forward, based on the specific qualities and community characteristics of each school. They support, question and challenge the school's senior leadership team, holding them to account. The constitution for each local school committee is five co-opted members, two parent members and one staff member in addition to the headteacher.
If you have noticed a vacancy at one of our schools and would like to understand more about the role, we warmly invite you to reach out and express your interest.
