Governors
Hill Top Academy has a Local Governing Body to ensure that it has the capacity to improve and raise overall standards. Ofsted considers the governing body to be part of the leadership and management of the Academy, however governors are not involved in the day to day operations of the Academy.
The Local Governing Body’s overall purpose is to:
- ensure clarity of vision, ethos and strategic direction of the school;
- hold the Principal and senior leaders to account for the educational performance of the school and its children and the performance management of staff;
- oversee the financial performance of the school, making sure delegated money is well spent against the identified priorities and within the agreed budget;
- actively embrace community, parental and staff engagement to raise the profile of the school within the locality and beyond; encourage growth of the pupil population and support in staff recruitment and retention.
Governors operate within the remit of a Scheme of Delegation which can be downloaded from the Trust website
