Governance at Manor Academy

Our Academy Governing Board is dedicated to supporting the students, staff, infrastructure at Manor Academy. The Academy Governing Board consists of volunteers who give their time and commitment freely. All our Governors are passionate about ensuring the best possible outcomes for every student.

The job of the Academy Governing Board is to support and challenge the Academy’s senior leadership team. They play an important role in supporting in raising achievement and enhancing the life choices of our students.

In addition, Academy Governors support the vision and ethos of the Trust and Academy. Locally, Governors focus on strategic functions which are determined by Trustees of The Two Counties Trust Board and within the Governance Structure.

Part of the remit of School Governors is to monitor data and challenge senior leaders to improve the provision for students.

Welcome from the Chair of Governors

May I, on behalf of the Governing Body, extend a warm welcome to you. 

The Governing Body at Manor exists to offer support to the Headteacher in the strategic decisions made at the academy, as well as hold the academy to account to ensure that we offer the best educational experience for all of our students.   

We are a Governing Body of thirteen members who all bring a wealth of skills and experience together to help shape Manor for the future.  Our work involves all stakeholders to ensure everyone has a voice in the development of the academy.  We meet formally throughout the academic year as a whole Governing Body and perform a number of monitoring visits to ensure our strategic plans have the desired impact on the improvement of our academy. 

We are all very proud of Manor Academy, both in the academic success our students achieve, and in our work with the local community.  We are a wholly inclusive academy and will do everything we can to support students in developing their academic and vocational skills.
