Governance of our schools

Highlees and Eyrescroft primary schools are being supported this academic year by the Team Around the Academy programme. This means that the school is being governed centrally by the Operations Group Trust (https://elliotfoundation.co.uk/about-us/who-we-are) acting under delegated authority from The Elliot Foundation Academies Trust Board (https://elliotfoundation.co.uk/resources/academy-trust-documents).

In the summer term of 2022 local representatives (pupils, parents, staff and wider community) will be supported to form an advisory Community Council to provide local knowledge, understanding and expertise around ethos, vision and curriculum on behalf of the community that the school serves. 

If you have any questions about the Trust or our governance structure please contact Jem Shuttleworth, Legal and Governance Director  (jem.shuttleworth@elliotfoundation.co.uk)
