Legal duty to provide governance information

More details

All maintained school governing bodies and academy trusts have a legal duty to provide all of the governance information requested on this page in so far as it is available to them.

This will increase the transparency of governance arrangements. It will enable schools and the department to identify more quickly and accurately individuals who are involved in governance, and who govern in more than one context.

The information requested says nothing in itself about a person's suitability to govern. However, it is essential information for the department to be able to uniquely identify an individual and in a small number of cases conduct checks to confirm their suitability for this important and influential role.

You should provide all of the information requested insofar as it is available to you. A minimum set of information needs to be provided before a record can be saved.

Delegated authority of local governing body

The Local Governing Board’s role is to exercise leadership on behalf of MET in the running of an individual academy and to provide information to MET on the operation and performance of the academy and to exercise its responsibilities and powers in partnership with the CEO, Headteacher and MET Trustees. The LGB and Headteacher have full delegated responsibility for the strategic direction and day-to-day leadership and management of the academy. Each LGB has a key role to play in the overall development and success of MET and in contributing to joint working and sharing best practice between academies in MET.
