Warrington Primary Academy Trust is a growing MAT with 8 schools currently in Warrington, Widnes and Frodsham working together to share values, experience and continually improve education and opportunities for young people in our communities.
Every governor at WPAT has a hugely important role, pushing the organization to be the best it can be to deliver high quality education and provide the best possible opportunities for all of our children. Local Governing Committees (LGCs) are key to ensuring that our objectives are met, and that planning for the future is both aspirational and realistic. We comprise of eight primary schools across Warrington and Halton and with the support of our dedicated Governance Manager, Chairs of LGCs and the Trust we recruit individuals from all paths of life. Every individual brings something unique to ensure we add diversity in all areas and we continue to learn together.
Our recruitment panels match the individual's expertise to the needs identified on each LGCs skills gap analysis, some governors choosing to work on two LGCs.
Our governors are expected to attend full governance meetings once per term and other meetings pertaining to link governor roles, undertaking training as and when required.
