Prestolee Multi Academy Trust Governing Board
In this section you can find out all about how our Governance is structured. Prestolee Multi Academy Trust Governing Board meets three times per year. The Standards Committee, Finance Committee and Personnel & Property Committee also meet three times per year. All directors are required to attend these meetings as all directors are on these committees.
Governance is a rapidly changing and responsive part of our School Trust. It is integral to the success of the Trust and the School.
