What is the structure of the Edventure Governing Board?
The Full Governing Board used to meet four times a year. Smaller committees of the Governing Board used to meet separately, to oversee detailed areas of work.
Since September 2021, the Governing Board is trialling a new approach. All regular work is now overseen by the Full Board, which meets at least ten times a year. Individual Governors have specific responsibilities for developing expertise and scrutinising specific aspects of the schools' work, as follows:
Governor | Link Role |
Emma MacIntosh | Attendance and Punctuality |
Eleanor Young | Teaching and Learning |
Geir Freysson | Drayton Park School |
James Glass | Health, Safety and Premises |
Lara Sophroniou | SEND and Looked After Children |
Leo Michelmore | Attendance and Punctuality |
Maggie Elliott | Safeguarding; SEND and Looked After Children |
Sophie McNeill | Finance and Information Governance; Parent and Pupil Voice |
Stephen Foulger | Teaching and Learning |
Sujeet Wadke | Finance and Information Governance |
Due to recent resignations from the Governing Board, some link roles are currently unfilled. The Governing Board is actively recruiting and hopes to fill these soon. These roles include:
- Montem School
- Physical and Mental Health
Committees are still used for occasional and specific work, such as the Pay Committee, which meets once a year to scrutinise teachers' pay.
