Link Governor Roles

In order to support the work of the sub-committees individual governors take a ‘lead’ on specific school issues and ‘link’ with the relevant staff members for that area of work. Following discussions with staff Link Governors provide reports that are submitted to committee meetings as well as the full Governing body.

Historically there were three Governor Committee Resources, Ethos and Teaching and Learning. During 2021-2022 a review of the Committee structure took place given the school is part of a Multi-Academy Organisation (MAT). Holy Trinity now has two Committees, Ethos and Teaching and Learning. At the same time the Governors reviewed the LINK Governor roles and extended the number of areas they would monitor. From June 2022 the LINK Governor roles are as follows;
