Our volunteers possess a varied skill set and support their local schools by driving high standards of achievement for all children and young people. They do this through contributing to strategic discussions at meetings, holding school leaders to account by monitoring the school’s performance and ensuring the school staff have the resources, premises and support they require to do their jobs well.
Our Local Governing Bodies provide a local level of access and accountability, and the Board of Trustees ensures that the Trust connects with our local Governors on a regular basis. This happens during monthly meetings between our Chairs and LGBs who send Governor representatives to the Board of Trustees committee meetings for education, finance and operations, and audit and risk.
Good governance is at the heart of delivering educational excellence and our Local Governing Bodies are highly valued members of our school communities. Everything that our Trust strives for is not just for the benefit of our children, young people and teachers, but the community as a whole.
In our support of physical education and activity, the Trust have been working with Shropshire schools for the past four years delivering high quality physical education and school sport CPD workshops and qualifications. Over the past 12 months, we have worked with national sporting bodies that include British Dodgeball, The LTA, British Gymnastics, and the Youth Sport Trust. We also actively support the Active Leadership Programme which aims to provide children and young people with a ‘child centred’ approach to leading and activating playtimes.
