SHINE Academies

Lodge Farm Primary School is part of SHINE Academies

Our team of Directors (also known as Trustees) are responsible for the strategic and financial management of the MAT. They are overseen by three elected Members, who have overall responsibility for the MAT. Directors and Members are governed by the Articles of Association that were adopted on conversion.

When appointing Directors, consideration is given to any skills gaps within the Trust, to ensure that a wide range of skills are available to fulfill the Trusts ambitious plans. 

In accordance with the Articles of Association, the Trust Board meet at least three times per year. 

Each school has a Local Governing Body* which is made up of a range of highly skilled people including parents and community governors. Local Governing Bodies are responsible for ensuring policy compliance and other responsibilities as outlined in the Trust's Scheme of Delegation, which are specific to each school. 

A variety of committees including Finance, General Purpose and Audit and Curriculum, report directly to the Local Governing Bodies and feed into the MAT Board meetings.
