The Governing Body
On the 1st December 2018, we were proud to become one of the founding members of the Horncastle Education Trust. Our partner schools are Queen Elizabeth's Grammar School, Frithville Primary School and New York Primary School.
Our shared vision:
We believe that every student whatever their background has the right to flourish, to achieve and to succeed and everything undertaken by Horncastle Education Trust should have this ambition at its heart.
All governance in the Horncastle Education Trust flows from the Trust Board who have legal responsibility for the operation of the Trust. The law places accountability for the educational outcomes and financial diligence of the Trust firmly with the Trustees and the CEO (Executive Headteacher) as Accounting Officer. However, a fundamental principle for the Horncastle Education Trust is that effective governance is best delivered as close as possible to the point of impact of decisions. We therefore have a governance structure that delegates significant accountability to our Local Governing Bodies.
Governors are appointed by the Trust in line with our Scheme of Delegation. Governance Framework and Scheme of Delegation.

The Role of Local Governing Bodies Horncastle Education Trust believes that the governors of each Trust School are best able to meet and understand the needs of their school and the local community they belong to and that governance should be as close as possible to the point of impact of decision-making. The structure of the Local Governing Bodies (LGBs) are set out in the Trust Scheme of Delegation. As a key principle of the Horncastle Education Trust is that we recognise that LGBs play a critical role to ensure each school delivers quality performance and upholds the values our educational community represents. LGBs know their school best and are an integral partner to our Trust’s continued improvement. The Trust Board will have responsibility for establishing LGBs, appointing the Chair, ensuring parents governors are appointed and will determine what will be delegated. Typically, responsibilities will include:
