Academy Governing Body
All academies within the Trust are governed by the L.E.A.D. Academy Trust Board and Members. The L.E.A.D. Academy Trust governance structure establishes clear lines of accountability, overview and scrutiny at three levels: The L.E.A.D. Academy Trust Members; the L.E.A.D. Academy Trust Board and its Committees; and the Academy Governing Bodies (AGBs).
L.E.A.D. Academy Trust – Governance

The AGB meets formally three times each year (termly) and also meets informally each term through engagement meetings. These key documents set out the function and role of the AGB.
