There were 2 leavers in 2019-20
As governors, we have three core roles:
Front Lawn Primary Academy works as part of The Kemnal Academies Trust, (TKAT). As a TKAT school, the strategic and operational roles of governors are delegated to the school by the TKAT Board of Trustees. The framework for this relationship is set out in the 'TKAT Scheme of Delegation', see below.
Front Lawn Primary Academy Local Governing Body
Each school has a Local Governing Body (LGB). The LGB membership includes the Head of School, staff governors, parent governors and co-opted governors.
The role of the LGB is to monitor, evaluate and (where appropriate) advise the school regarding:
The LGB meets twice each term. The first meeting each term is focused on pupil achievement and other curriculum items. The second meeting is focused on finance and resources.
Local Governing Body - Official Positions
The Local Governing Body (LGB) has the following official positions:
Local Governing Body - Other Responsibilities
Members of the LGB have responsibility for supporting and monitoring the following areas of school activity:
Pay Committee
Each school Local Governing Committee has a Pay Committee. This sub-committee is made up of a small group of governors. It is responsible for approving any annual salary changes proposed by the headteacher.
To carry out our responsibilities the members of the Front Lawn Primary Academy Local Governing Body hold a set of meetings and make visits to the school.

Visits
To be excellent governors we need to have an excellent knowledge of the school. To make this possible we support our committee meetings with visits to the school. These visits usually involve a meeting with a member of staff to discuss a particular area of school activity and the observation of pupils at work in their classrooms.
Governors’ Action Plan
To make sure that governors work in a systematic and coordinated way that best supports the school, visits are organised under an annual Governors’ Action Plan. Please see the list of key documents below for ours.
What we have done in the past year
All school governing bodies should produce an annual report or accountability statement that sets out what the governors have done over the past year and what difference we have made. We've included ours in the list of key documents below.
