Governance Arrangements

Following reviews in 2020 and 2021, in September 2022 the Arthur Terry Learning Partnership implemented a new model for local school oversight. Defined academy representative roles known as Advocates (formerly known as governors) collaborate with school leaders and Trustees to enhance the strategic priorities of individual schools and the Trust as a whole.

The structure reflects the Trust and its schools’ single shared vision, a single Board of Trustees and a single scheme of delegation. The governance structure is designed to reflect the overall legal responsibility of the Trust Board, and the direct link between individual school representation to both individual schools and trustees.

Our Advocates are:

Support and Challenge: Jane Jones (appointed September 2024)

Vulnerable Children: TBC

Safeguarding: TBC

Community: TBC

The Arthur Terry Learning Partnership is committed to keeping our students safe, both in school and the wider community. As part of our safeguarding arrangements, we have a two-way information sharing agreement in place with the local police authority. The agreement is compliant with Crime & Disorder Act 1998 (s.115) and Data Protection Act 1998(s.29.3; s.35.2.), and focuses on preventing young people from becoming involved or further involved in crime and anti-social behaviour as a victim or offender.

If you have any queries about the partnership policy, please contact Mrs S Bailey, ATLP Safeguarding Lead.
