Academy Governance

All Trustees and Members are voluntary and contribute fully to the efficient and effective running of the Academy. As such, all have particular experience or skills which enable them to do this effectively.

They also act as the admissions authority for the Academy in place of the Local Authority who perform this role for maintained schools.

To make enquiries directly to the Academy Trustees and Members please contact the Clerk:

Mrs Samantha Spruth on clerk@biggleswadeacademy.org.
