Governance Structure

Overview

天美app is committed to enabling pupils to achieve in all areas. A vital part of ensuring this is outstanding governance, and as such we are committed as a Trust to ensuring that the whole is stronger than the sum of the parts.

We do this by working collaboratively across the Trust and ensuring that we are held, and hold ourselves accountable to a very high standard. The structures and functions of governance are vital in ensuring that pupils are kept safe and make progress both academically, socially and emotionally and that the Trust provides good value for money.

The Trust board is made up of an independent Chair, a school representative, and Trustees. The Board Trustees have collective expertise in many areas including: strategic governance in education, business, finance, managing change in education, school improvement, safeguarding, HR, and Law.

Wave Monitoring Hubs

Wave has established six Monitoring Hubs acting across Devon and Cornwall:

Cornwall West: Nine Maidens Academy, Penwith Academy
Cornwall East: Caradon Academy, North Cornwall Academy, Restormel Academy
Devon: River Dart Academy, Stansfield Academy, The Shoreline Academy
Medical Cornwall: CHES Academy, Sowenna
Medical Devon: Torlands Academy
Special: Glendinning Academy

The Monitoring Hubs are comprised of volunteers, known as Representatives, from partner organisations alongside Senior Trust Leaders. Each of the Monitoring Hubs is also 鈥榓dopted鈥� by at least one Trustee.

The purpose of the Monitoring Hubs is to provide support and challenge at a local level, specifically in regard to quality of education, safeguarding and to monitor key performance indicators whilst acting as a critical friend to the Principals/Heads of School.

The Monitoring Hubs report directly to the Board of Trustees and the Quality, Safeguarding & Standards Committee. They act strategically to ensure that pupils receive a high quality of education in a safe and secure environment.
