Importance

Governance of our trust and academies is of the upmost importance, and having a representation from the communities we serve is vital. Our governance ranges from governors on local governing bodies at each of our academies through to our board of trusties and members for the trust. 

We are always on the lookout for people who will actively contribute to the success of our trust and academies, who will bring a range of knowledge, skills and experience and have a passion for making a difference

For further information, current vacancies, trust and academy governance visit the trust’s website – become a governor page

Your enquiry will be directed the Head of Governance and Corporate Support for the Learning Community Trust, who oversees all academies’ local governing bodies – they will then pass on your enquiry to the relevant person.
