They are supported by the School's Governing Body, which is an advisory group of specialists and experts, whose remit is to scrutinise and challenge all aspects of the School’s operation, and to advise the school as appropriate. The Group’s Terms of Reference are at this link. 

The Group will comprise of at least 7 members, the majority of whom will be external members who are highly experienced in holding schools and / or organisations to account.
