Community Council

The Trust governance model recognises that Community Councils are, whilst a full and formal part of the governance structure in line with the Trust's Articles of Association, wholly advisory bodies who focus on:



Community Councillors are a very much valued group of volunteers appointed from current parents, staff and interested individuals from the wider community.  They play a crucial role in our school offering challenging but positive and proactive support to the Headteacher  and Senior Leadership team on behalf of the children and the community that the school serves alongside.  Ensuring all hold the highest aspirations and expectations for our pupils.


Community Councillors are appointed from current parents, staff and pupils alongside committed individuals from the wider community. Councillors have an interest in the education and wider opportunities offered by the school to all pupils and give their time   to 'supporting the school to be the best they can be.'
