Our Parent Governors are particularly important in providing feedback to the school, so do seek them out if you have any issues you wish the Governors to follow-up in school on your behalf.

The Academy Board meet twice each term and therefore six times a year.  One meeting a term focuses on Educational Standards and one meeting focuses on the Business of the Academy.  Our meetings are minuted by an experienced Clerk from Nottingham City who provides independent oversight over the Governance of the Academy and provides a local and national perspective to ensure all relevant educational issues are addressed at our Board meetings.  Dave Dickinson chairs both meetings and is responsible for covering Board sub-committees if and when the need arises.
