A message from dawn carmen-jones (chair of trustees)

As a result of recent resignations from the Locality Committee at YVPS, the Committee is no longer quorate according to the Trust Scheme of Delegation.  Therefore the Trust Board has temporarily suspended any delegation until a reformed committee has been established.  The Trust Board is actively working with the Academy Head to recruit new members to the Locality Committee with specific interest in:

  • Safeguarding
  • Staff and Pupil Wellbeing
  • Education and learning (the pupil experience)
  • Health and Safety and Premises

We are also seeking to elect parent representatives.

If you are interested in knowing more about the Locality Committee functions and would like to support your community schools we would love to hear from you.  Please register your interest initially with Gail Jerman (Academy Head) and we will contact you directly.
