Governance

Stockport Academy is part of United Learning Trust whose Trustees hold the ultimate legal responsibility for the governance of its schools. Further information about the governance of United Learning’s schools, including its Trustees and the scheme of delegation, can be found on the United Learning website: United Learning Governance

All United Learning schools have a local governing body (LGB); the Chair is appointed by the United Learning Group Board. Details of the Chair and members of Stockport Academy's local governing body can be found below, together with any financial or business interests.

Our Local Governing Body

As an academy, Stockport Academy is independent of the local authority but is still subject to the usual checks and inspections. It receives regular Ofsted inspections and is accountable to a Local Governing Body (LGB). The LGB works with the Principal to ensure that standards at the academy are improving.

It is also responsible for setting policies on matters such as admissions and behaviour. The LGB consists of representatives from the staff (both teaching and non-teaching), parents and members of the local community. The academy is responsible for appointing staff and parent representatives and The United Learning Trust is responsible for recruiting the other members of the LGB.

The Chair of our LGB is Mr David Robinson. To write to our Chair of Governors please use the address below:
