Arbor Academy Trust is looking to appoint Local Governing Board members for its school. We are looking for individuals able to offer skills and expertise to assist the further development of our highly successful schools.
The Trust Board wishes to ensure the majority of the membership of the Local Governing Board is parents of children in the school however these appointments are not restricted exclusively to parents as we look to reflect wider aspects of our local community.
The work of the Local Governing Board is very important to the school. The board is responsible for holding the school to account and therefore it is essential that all members of the board are committed to their role, attend training as necessary to continually develop their knowledge and develop a good understanding of the strengths and weakness of the school in order to work with the senior leadership team to ensure continuous improvement.
All Trust Board appointments are subject to an enhanced Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) check. You will be required to disclose any criminal convictions you may have. These will not necessarily bar you from holding office as it will depend on the nature of the conviction. The school’s safeguarding officer will provide you with the form to complete and any further information you may require.
If you are interested in becoming a local governor please contact Jason Cook, Executive Principal.
