Our Academy is part of the Diocese of Coventry Multi Academy Trust and the AGC is part of the governance structure of the Trust which is responsible for overseeing strategic decisions of the school. The governance structure for the trust as a whole is outlined in the governance structure documents here. As an Academy Governance Committee, we work in close partnership with the Headteacher and Senior Leadership Team to ensure every child receives the best possible education. It is our responsibility to support, challenge, ask questions and ultimately represent the school community. The Academy Governance Committee acts as a ‘critical friend’ to the Senior Leadership Team, questioning and challenging decisions in a constructive and professional way.

Academy Governance Committees have key roles in providing support, monitoring and challenge in relation to educational experience and performance; church, community and stakeholder engagement; and supporting alignment with Trust strategy, approach, ethos and values. The AGC Members meet regularly, visit the school when possible, and during special events.  As a team, we are able to support the school to operate efficiently and make the best possible use of resources as we strive to provide outstanding opportunities for teaching, learning and personal development.

As a Church of England Primary Academy (part of the Diocese of Coventry Multi-Academy Trust), the AGC Members support the school to be inclusive and welcoming in everything it does.  

Below, you will find details of how our Academy Governance Committee (AGC) is structured, including the names, categories, responsibilities and terms of appointment for each AGC Member.
