Governance Structure

The Governing Body of The Bourne Academy have ultimate responsibility for the strategic directions of the school. The day-to-day management is delegated to the Leadership Team, headed by the Executive Group under the guidance of the Principal.

The Governing Body has established committees with responsibility for Finance, Pay, Risk Management and Appeals. The Finance Committee meet at least once a term, the Pay Committee (as part of the Finance Committee) annually and the other committees as and when required.

The Academy also has a Link Governor programme, with each key area of the Academy linked to a specific Governor to ensure that the Governing Body has a good insight into all areas of the Academy. The executive leaders of each areas would usually meet with their Link Governors on a termly basis.

Full Governing Body meetings take place 4 times a year (2 Autumn Term, 1 Spring Term, and 1 Summer Term).

The summary of meeting attendance by the Governors is included in the Annual Report and Financial Statements, which are available on the Academy’s website.
