Locality Committees, Teams & Draft Terms of Reference
The Locality Committee and the Teams are considered, in legal terms, to be a sub-committee of the Consortium Trust Board and as such, has clear Terms of Reference and specific delegations of tasks and functions as detailed in the Scheme of Delegation. Delegation can be removed from the Locality Committee by the Consortium Trust Board, if intervention is deemed necessary.
Locality Committee Teams will be focused on the following areas:
-
Pupil Experience
-
Parent Parliament
-
Safeguarding
-
Health & Safety and Premises
-
Wellbeing
The Trust Board retains the right to review or remove any power or responsibility delegated to the Locality Committee, in particular, in circumstances where serious concerns in the running of the School are identified, including where:
-
There is insufficient progress being made against educational targets (including where intervention by the Secretary of State is being considered or carried out);
-
There has been a break down in the way in which the School is being managed or overseen; or
-
The safety of pupils or staff is threatened, including a breakdown of discipline;
Where necessary, the Trust Board will put in place, for an appropriate period of time, a Locality Committee Intervention Board, which will be responsible for addressing the areas of weakness.
