Governors
The Local Governance Board (LGB) on behalf of THPT Board provides local independent support and challenge, with a view to continuously improving the quality of education provision. The LGB have an important role in the Trust, effectively involving themselves in the school and the community in which it sits. As well as attending school LGB meetings, Governors are linked to specific areas and participate in Trust wide Governance Networks.
Further information regarding the Trust's Governance structure can be found on THPT website.
