Governance

As part of Prestolee Multi Academy Trust, Mesne Lea Primary School has its own local governing board (LGB) with high levels of earned autonomy.  This is outlined in the scheme of delegation that can be viewed here. 

The role of the LGB is to:

  1. Help the Trust achieve its strategic objective:

The Trust of choice, for children, parents and educators.  A community of practice, where everyone belongs, learns and succeeds. Where every child receives a first-class education and is prepared for a future of possibilities

  1. Have high aspirations and ensure every child succeeds
  2. Work strategically to provide the highest levels of challenge and support
  3. Ensure the school is the best it can be
  4. Meaningfully engage with stakeholders and be a champion for their children, families and community

Governance is supported by the Board of Trustees, details of which can be found here.
