Governors
Academy community councils are accountable to parents, the local community and the academy trust and they are usually appointed for four years. Their main role is to help raise the pupils' standards of achievement.
The academy community council:
- is accountable for the performance of the school to parents and the wider community
- plans the school's future direction
- makes sure the agreed curriculum is well taught
- decides how the school can encourage pupils' spiritual, moral and cultural development
- monitoring and reviewing aims, objectives, and whether the policies, targets and priorities are being achieved
- and makes sure the school provides for all pupils including those with special needs.
If you would like to contact the councillors directly their details are below, alternatively you can email: admin@box.wilts.sch.uk and your message will be forwarded on to the correct person. Alternatively you could pop into one of the 'meet the ACC' sessions during our parents' evenings if you would like to ask any questions or find out more about what the governing body does.
