CORE Education Trust is a multi-academy trust and company limited by guarantee.
The Trust’s governance model ensures clear and non-duplicative roles and responsibilities within the overall governance structure.
The running of the Trust is undertaken by the CEO and monitored by the Board of Trustees who hold the CEO to account and manage their performance. The Trust is governed by its Articles of Association which are agreed with its Members. In charitable law, the Directors are referred to as Trustees.
Lines of accountability are set out in the Trust’s Scheme of Delegation.
Governance in our Schools
Each CORE School has its own Local Governing Body (LGB). Each LGB has delegated authority from the Trust to support and challenge the Headteacher. The Trust’s Chief Executive Officer (CEO) works closely with both the Headteacher and the Chair of Governors to ensure scrutiny procedures are effective and that governance is robust, with a strong regard for statutory compliance.
