Directors (also known as Trustees)

The remit of Directors

Each Director is:

• a director of the Academy Trust: the directors are responsible for the governance and supervision of the Academy Trust and its committees (including LGBs) and executives (including the EP and Head of Schools); and
• a charity trustee with responsibility for protection of the assets of the Academy Trust.

In simple terms, the Directors "manage" the affairs of the Academy Trust and are responsible for its day to day running.
